Tenneco Automotive (Tenneco) is recalling certain Beck/Arnley Master Cylinders, part number 072-9831, sold as aftermarket or replacement parts for 2004-2018 Volkswagen Jetta, and 2012-2019 Volkswagen Beetle vehicles. The fluid seal crimp on the master cylinder may be insufficient, causing brake fluid to leak or the cylinder to come apart.
If there is a brake fluid leak, it can reduce braking ability, increasing the risk of a crash.
Beck/Arnley will notify the distributors that sold the master cylinders and will work with the distributors to notify the end users. Affected master cylinders will be exchanged for a new master cylinder (part number 072-9990), free of charge. The recall began October 30, 2020. Owners may contact Tenneco customer service at 1-800-625-9319.

Electrical system, ignition, anti-theft, control moduleAug 22, 2019
Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. (Volkswagen) is recalling certain 2015-2019 GTI, 2015-2016 and 2018-2019 Golf, 2012-2019 Beetle and Beetle Convertible, 2017-2019 Golf SportWagen and 2011-2018 Jetta vehicles equipped with an automatic transmission, manual handbrake and keyless entry. A build-up of silicate on the shift lever micro switch contacts may enable the key to be removed from the ignition when the transmission shift lever is not in "Park."
Removing the key while the shift lever is in a position other than "Park" increases the risk of an unintended vehicle rollaway that may result in personal injury or a crash.
Volkswagen will notify owners, and dealers will install an additional switch and circuit board, free of charge. The recall began November 19, 2019. Owners may contact Volkswagen customer service at 1-800-893-5298. Volkswagen's number for this recall is 37M2.

Air bags, frontalAug 4, 2015
Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. (Volkswagen) is recalling certain model year 2010-2014 Volkswagen CC, and Passat, 2010-2013 Eos, 2011-2014 Golf, GTI, Jetta, and Tiguan, and 2012-2014 Jetta Sportwagen vehicles. In the affected vehicles, debris may contaminate the air bag clock spring, a spiral wound, flat cable that keeps the air bag powered while the steering wheel is being turned. This contamination may tear the cable and result in a loss of electrical connection to the driver's frontal air bag.
A loss of electrical connection to the driver's frontal air bag will prevent the air bag from deploying in the event of a vehicle crash, increasing the risk of injury.
Volkswagen will notify owners, and dealers will install a protective cover over the steering wheel clock spring if the air bag light is off. If the airbag light is on and the steering wheel clock spring requires replacement, dealers will install a new steering wheel clock spring. These repairs will be performed free of charge. The recall began on January 15, 2016. Owners may contact Volkswagen customer service at 1-800-822-8987.

Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. (Volkswagen) is recalling certain model year 2011-2013 Jetta vehicles manufactured March 1, 2010, to November 30, 2012, and 2012-2013 Beetle vehicles manufactured March 1, 2011, to July 31, 2013. The durability of the rear trailing arms may be reduced in vehicles whose rear trailing arms have been previously deformed, such as a result of a rear or side-rear impact crash.
The reduced durability of the trailing arm may result in its sudden fracture, possibly causing loss of vehicle control and increasing the risk of a crash.
Volkswagen will notify owners, and dealers will install a sheet metal inlay on the rear axle trailing arms designed to prevent a sudden loss of control in the event of trailing arm sudden fracture, free of charge. The recall began April 7, 2015. Owners may contact Volkswagen customer service at 1-800-893-5298.

Because of recall, car was not engaged in park completely like it stated after I got out it rolled away down the hill and hit a tree, therefore the recall caused my accident. Yes the problem has been confirmed it is a recall. No it has not been inspected by dealer or police. Volkswagen will not engage in any further investigations they say it's my fault. There were no warning lamps.

Component/System Failure/Malfunction: ignition switch and starter, possibly transmission Yes, available for inspection upon request. Car has randomly stalled while in motion; ignition and starter switch have been replaced as well as microswitch panel - yet problem persists. Power steering shuts down, steering wheel becomes very difficult to turn. Have to put car in neutral, typically, and try to restart while in motion. Has happened over 100 times; replaced alternator as well. Battery was replaced, brand new, yet was drained multiple times - recharged at Autozone. Vehicle was brought to Larry H. Miller Volkswagen - was advised the problem was fixed, as well as recall repairs (microswitch), paid for the service, went to leave dealership and problem immediately happened again. Complete shut off. Would stay running a little longer while in neutral or AC on. When the vehicle stalls the only light that comes on is the battery light. All other lights and systems work. Ran diagnostic codes through personal mechanic, friend, and dealership... Code states "Key/Ignition/Computer" but unsure what specifically. The 2011 Volkswagen Jetta also does not have the original key fob. May be improper programming? Continued to research all other recalls, services have been completed and yet the problem persists.

Door unexpectedly does not close and latch correctly. Had to hold the car door the whole time driving. The driver door and passenger door has done it so far. This needs to look into.

Car keeps turning off while driving and battery light comes on the dash board. Restarts and light no longer comes on until it turns off again. Drives for awhile again and same thing happens. Have changed numerous parts but without anything showing, can't diagnose it. Unpredictable to when it will turn off.

Volkswagen Jettas between 2011-2014 received a recall for the clockspring issue that occurs. I just learned that I am experiencing the same issue and my car is the same year and make. Both the airbag light is on and the horn does not work properly which is a major safety risk. VW said they will not cover the repair however this is a serious safety issue which has clearly been a problem.

The ABS module in this vehicle has failed as the ABS, Traction Control, Airbag, and Brake lights are all on with the brake light flashing. The dealership stated a new module would be needed to have functioning anti lock brakes. In reference to case - NHTSA: 16V913, I believe the same components are the same as the power train did not change between the two vehicles. I am having the same symptoms as stated in this document but there is no recall as of yet.

This Jetta Sportwagen TDI is one of the "diesel gate" vehicles that was supposedly fixed. However, post fix, the vehicle has been at the dealership for repairs more than it has been on the road for various emissions related issues revolving around the exhaust gas recirculation system and diesel particulate filter. Vehicle is washed regularly, including scrubbing of the chaise pipe ends with heavy duty soot cleaning solution. vehicle takes less than a week to collect enough soot on the tailpipe to cause transference to finger when whipped. This is an indication that an excessive amount of soot is not being properly recirculated by the exhaust gas recirculating system to be rebut in the diesel particulate filter. This also indicates that the "fix" for the cheating emissions system is not doing its job and vehicle is likely emitting particulate and NOX at levels far above legal limits.

I WANTED TO FOLLOW UP ON MY PREVIOUS CLAIM. AS STATED IN MY PREVIOUS NOTE, I NOTICED THE ODOR A FEW MONTHS AFTER PURCHASING MY CAR. A FEW YEARS AFTER I GOT MY CAR, I DEVELOPED A MOLD ALLERGY AND IT WAS GETTING HARDER FOR ME TO BREATHE. THE ONLY TIME THE ISSUE OCCURRED WAS WHEN I WOULD DRIVE MY CAR. SO, I HAD TO GO TO THE ALLERGY DOCTOR. THEY DID A FEW TESTS AND FOUND OUT I HAD A MOLD ALLERGY. A FEW WEEKS LATER, I KEPT SMELLING A SMELL FROM MY AC. I ASKED A FRIEND TO COME AND CHECK ON MY AIR FILTER IN MY CAR. HE PULLED IT OUT AND IT WAS FULL OF MOLD. HE TOLD ME THAT THE CAR WAS RETAINING MOISTURE IN MY A/C UNIT AND THAT IT IS PROBABLY WHAT IS HURTING MY ALLERGIES. WITH THAT BEING SAID, I HAVE TO CHANGE MY FILTER AT LEAST ONCE A MONTH. ONE, TO MAKE SURE THAT IT DOESN'T MOLD. TWO, SO THAT I CAN BREATHE. WITH THAT BEING SAID, MY ALLERGIES BECAME WORSE AFTER I DISCOVERED THE MOLD. I HAD TO GO BACK ON MY ALLERGY SHOTS FOR AWHILE. BECAUSE MY ALLERGIES GOT SO BAD, EVEN WITH MY SHOTS AND OTHER MEDICATION, IT MESSED WITH MY BREATHING. SO, I HAD TO HAVE AN IN OFFICE PROCEDURE TO RELEASE SOME OF THE PRESSURE TO HELP ME BREATHE BETTER. ALL OF THIS TO SAY, VW KNOWS THAT THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THEY AC SYSTEM HOLDING MOISTURE AND IT MAKING THE CAR HAVE A MOLDY SMELL TO IT. THIS IS DANGEROUS FOR PEOPLE WITH ALLERGIES AND WE SHOULD NOT HAVE TO SUFFER, DUE TO A MANUFACTURERS CARELESSNESS. I FEEL AS IF THEY SHOULD REACH OUT TO ANYONE WITH AFFECTED VEHICLE OWNERS AND FIGURE OUT A SOLUTION TO THIS MATTER. I LOVE MY VOLKSWAGEN AND I WANTED TO LOOK INTO PURCHASING ANOTHER ONE, HOPEFULLY AN SUV TYPE, IN A FEW YEARS. BUT, IF THEY CANNOT FIX THIS ISSUE, I MAY NEVER LOOK INTO THEM AGAIN. MY HEALTH IS FAR MORE IMPORTANT TO ME. SO, I WILL BEGIN MY SEARCH FOR AN ADDITIONAL VEHICLE, WHILE WORKING ON MY VW, AS WELL.

HELLO. THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH MY 2011 VW JETTA'S AC SYSTEM. THERE IS AN AWFUL ODOR. IT SMELLS MOLDY AND MUSTY(MUSKY). I WENT TO A DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME TO CHANGE MY AIR FILTER AND A FEW OTHER THINGS. IT WORKED FOR ABOUT 4 DAYS AND THE SMELL CAME RIGHT BACK. I HAVE TALKED TO OTHER JETTA AND A PASSAT OWNER ONE 2012 AND ONE 2013, THEY ALSO HAVE THE SAME ISSUE. AT FIRST MY CAR HAD A BURNING SMELL COMING FROM THE SYSTEM WHEN I STARTED MY CAR AND TURNED THE AIR ON. A FEW MINUTES LATER AN ODOR FILLED MY VENTS. THIS HAPPENED AFTER I PURCHASED MY CAR IN 2013. ABOUT 6 MONTHS LATER. I HAVE CONSTANTLY CHANGED THE FILTERS AND WILL BE GETTING A NEW AIR COMPRESSOR SOON, BUT. I WAS TOLD THAT IT MAY NOT HELP THE SMELL FROM THE SYSTEM. I HAVE BEEN ONLINE SEARCHING TO SEE IF ANY OTHER VW OWNERS HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE AND IT LOOKS LIKE IT IS PREVALENT IN VW VEHICLES FROM AT LEAST 2009-2014. I WOULD HAVE SEARCHED MORE, BUT THERE WERE SO MANY COMPLAINTS FOR VEHICLES MADE THAT I WAS OVERWHELMED. THIS WAS THE FIRST CAR THAT I PURCHASED MYSELF AND I WANTED TO KEEP IT AS LONG AS IT WOULD HOLD OUT. I AM AT OVER 144,000 MILES AND I LOVE THE CAR. I'M WORKING ON CHANGING OUT COMPONENTS THAT HAVEN'T EVEN MESSED UP YET, BECAUSE I KNOW THEY WILL EVENTUALLY. I WANT TO KEEP THIS CAR FOR AS LONG AS I CAN. BUT, I HAVE TRIED EVERYTHING TO FIX THE ODOR AND FOR ME TO FIND OUT THAT THERE IS NOTHING THAT VW CAN DO TO FIX IT, BREAKS MY HEART. HAD I KNOW THAT THIS WAS AN ISSUE WHEN I PURCHASED THIS CAR, I WOULD HAVE NEVER PURCHASED IT. PLEASE LOOK INTO THE CLAIMS OF VW OWNERS ON MULTIPLE WEBSITES. IF YOU NEED A LIST OF WEBSITES, I CAN SEND YOU AN EMAIL OF ALL OF THE ONES THAT I WAS ABLE TO FIND. I ALSO HAVE A CAR FAX FOR MY VEHICLE SOMEWHERE. IT STATES THAT THE VEHICLE NEVER HAD ANY WATER DAMAGE OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT TO WARRANT THE ISSUE IN THE AC SYSTEM. I CAN SEND IT TO YOU IF YOU NEED IT. JUST SEND AN EMAIL.
