Rückruf: Einer Million VW-Autos in Deutschland droht Lenkungsausfall
Ein Schraubenabriss kann bei mehreren VW- und Audi-Modellen zum Ausfall der Lenkung führen. Welche Fahrzeuge betroffen sind und was das KBA empfiehlt.
Nearly one million Volkswagen and Audi vehicles in Germany may be affected by a steering failure, according to the German Federal Motor Transport Authority (KBA). The issue stems from a screw breakage, which could lead to steering failure, the data shows. To resolve the problem, the steering linkage needs to be replaced with a more corrosion-resistant screw, the KBA explained.
T-online.de had previously reported on this matter. The affected VW models include the Tiguan, Touran, Golf Variant, Caddy, and Golf, all produced between September 24, 2013, and July 1, 2024. Globally, the concern involves nearly 2.16 million vehicles, with around 900,000 in Germany. The same problem also affects the Audi Q3, produced between October 31, 2017, and May 23, 2024.
Potentially, nearly 700,000 vehicles worldwide, including 58,555 in Germany, may be impacted by this issue.
