Recall Service & Dealership Highlights

Safety Starts With a VIN Check

NHTSA identifies four recalls for the 2017 Volkswagen Golf SportWagen. An air bag defect may prevent a driver, passenger, or head air bag from deploying properly, increasing injury risk in a crash. Two steering column recalls address silicate buildup that may allow the key to come out when the vehicle is not in Park, creating a rollaway and crash hazard. A suspension recall involves rear coil springs that may fracture, potentially damaging a rear tire and reducing control. Waiting can leave a known safety concern unresolved. A free VIN check shows whether a manufacturer remedy remains open, so schedule service promptly if you have questions.
