A large-scale recall operation is underway at Volkswagen!  News from Auto Plus in your smartphone News from Auto Plus in your mailbox

It’s not very good to be a motorist now! Between the increase in the price of fuel, the shortage at service stations, the increase in the price of recharging for electric vehicles, as well as tolls, the situation is certainly very difficult. Not to mention all kinds of restrictions in the name of ecology. But other issues also affect drivers: recalls. They are organized by manufacturers when a model is affected by a large-scale problem. And now it does not stop! Ferrari, Kia, Hyundai, Ford or even Tesla, but also Stellantis and Peugeot in particular. But that’s not all.

A big campaign

Now it’s Volkswagen’s turn to undergo a massive recall campaign. If it’s only for the United States at the moment, it’s possible that our European cars will soon be as well. But then what is the problem? Nothing vital, rest assured, as the reversing camera will fail this time. A glitch noticed by the brand during tests that shows it no longer works if the software is installed before it was factory installed. In general, not less than 43,091 cars brand will be affected by this concern which may cause accidents.

Several models

And this time, not one, but several models were affected by this failure. Let us mention, in particular, Volkswagen Golf GTI VIII, Tiguan, Arteon but also Jetta, Atlas or Taos. A simple minor software update at the dealership would have solved the problem. In France, owners of one of these models can also contact their dealer for more information, particularly if the rear-view camera fails.
