5 common questions answered
NHTSA recall information identifies concerns involving key removal, tire information and the brake master cylinder. Silicate buildup may allow the key to come out before the transmission is in Park, creating unintended rollaway risk. An incorrect tire label may contribute to overloading, which can affect handling or damage a tire. An insufficient seal on certain replacement master cylinders may cause brake-fluid leakage or separation and reduce braking ability. Waiting can leave a known safety concern unresolved. A prompt VIN check helps determine whether your Beetle needs a free manufacturer remedy, giving you a clear and reassuring next step.
