Roadway safety is strictly regulated in the United States, with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) investigating vehicles and safety devices alongside major auto manufacturers, including Volkswagen. Safety recalls are issued when the NHTSA or the manufacturer finds an excessive risk. Safety recall services are organized to eliminate the risk with service provided for free to the vehicle’s owner. Safety recalls are generally non-emergency issues, but an excessive risk has been found. The ideal strategy recommended is to get the corrective recall service as soon as possible to eliminate the risk.
Service campaigns do not involve safety risks; manufacturers issue them to correct performance-related shortcomings. Owners receive a notification letter sent by Volkswagen if the Golf, Tiguan, Jetta, or another model is involved in a service campaign. Service campaigns are also completed at no charge to the owner with a quick turnaround. We recommend scheduling campaign services promptly to ensure the best driving experience.
Volkswagen owners have a few options when checking for recalls. Volkswagen has a Recall/ Service Campaign lookup portal where drivers can search for active recalls with the 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number. After providing the make, year, and model, the online service scheduler has a recall search available in the service section. Customers can contact us via website chat, provide basic contact details, and a service advisor will contact you shortly. We also have service advisors available by phone to answer recall questions during regular service department hours.
Scheduling recall service online is convenient and quick. We also schedule recall services by phone. Customers waiting for recall services at the dealership enjoy a comfortable waiting area with business workstations, a quiet room, vending machines, TVs, and complimentary Wi-Fi.
