Recalls

On certain vehicles, a front lower ball joint nut may be loose or improperly tightened.

This could result in a dislocation of a lower ball joint, which could affect steering, traction or stability of the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property.

Correction: Dealers will replace the lower ball joint nut (ball joint to wheel bearing housing/”steering knuckle”) on both sides of the vehicle.

Note: In the interim, owners are advised to stop driving their vehicle until the defect has been repaired.

Affected owners should call Volkswagen's Roadside Assistance number at 1-800-411-6688 to arrange to have the vehicle towed to the nearest dealer for repair.
