Volkswagen is set to recall 60,490 vehicles in the United States after the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) identified a potential safety issue. The recall, which affects certain models, is due to a failure to display the gear position.
This defect could lead to a vehicle rollaway if the parking brake is not engaged.
The recall impacts specific model years of several vehicles, including the 2021-2023 Volkswagen ID.4, the 2022-2023 Audi Q4 e-Tron, and the Audi Q4 e-Tron Sportback, according to NHTSA. Volkswagen has not yet provided additional details on the timeline for repairs or the specific remedy to address the issue.
Owners of the affected vehicles are advised to contact their local Volkswagen or Audi dealers for further information and to schedule any necessary repairs. The NHTSA and Volkswagen continue to work together to ensure that all potential risks are addressed promptly and efficiently.
