NHTSA’s Air Bags recalls describe a serious risk: excessive pressure may cause the driver’s frontal air-bag inflator to rupture or explode when deployment is needed. Metal fragments could strike occupants and potentially result in serious injury or death. A separate Unknown Or Other recall says certain modifications may leave the vehicle outside applicable regulatory requirements, increasing the risk of a crash, fire, or injury. Waiting can leave an unresolved safety concern in place. Because recall remedies are defined by Volkswagen and performed at no charge when applicable, check the VIN promptly rather than assuming a prior owner completed the work.
