Volkswagen Recall | Under Hood Fuel Supply Line

312-628-4950

Volkswagen has decided that a defect, which relates to motor vehicle safety, exists in some 2006-2010 model year Volkswagen Jetta, 2007-2009 model year Rabbit and 2009-2010 model year Jetta SportsWagen vehicles equipped with a 2.5L engine.

Service Action 20 | 4 Under Hood Fuel Supply Line 

What is the problem?
Affected vehicles may have a small plastic tab located on the windshield washer fluid reservoir that may chafe against an under hood fuel supply line.  If chafing occurs, there is a potential for a fuel leak to develop over time.  Leaking fuel, in the presence of an ignition source, may result in a fire.

Precautions you should take
Affected vehicles can continue to be driven as usual, but if you can smell fuel in the vehicle proceed immediately to the nearest authorized Volkswagen dealer if you believe that it is safe to do so in order to have the fuel system on the vehicle inspected.


What will Volkswagen do?
In order to identify and correct this defect, Fletcher Jones Volkswagen in Chicago will inspect and, as necessary, replace the affected under hood fuel supply line in your vehicle.  As a preventative measure, a plastic tab on the windshield washer fluid reservoir will be removed.


We encourage you to contact your Chicago Volkswagen dealer, Fletcher Jones Volkswagen, and arrange for an appointment
at your earliest convenience.  The inspection will take less than one hour, and repairs if necessary may take an additional hour.  This work will will be performed for you free of charge.
