On certain Tiguan vehicles with manual seat height adjustment from a limited production period, a tear to a belt of the front seats may occur in the event of a frontal crash. This is due to defective protective felt on the lever of the seat height adjustment. In the event of a frontal crash, the safety belt may get between the seat cladding and the lever and then damage the safety belt. The restraining performance of the safety belts may therefore be impaired.
There are 51 vehicles affected in the Republic of Ireland that were produced between 13 May 2024 to 17 June 2024.
Volkswagen Group Ireland Limited recalls certain Volkswagen Caddy model vehicles
21 January 2025
Volkswagen Group Ireland Limited is carrying out a voluntary recall of certain Volkswagen Caddy model vehicles.
On Caddy vehicles manufactured during a specific period, leaks may occur where the brake hose is attached because the rear left brake line is not screwed in correctly. A leak may lead to a slow loss of brake fluid. The resulting low brake fluid level is indicated by a warning light or indicator in the instrument cluster. As a result of the brake fluid loss, braking performance could be affected.
