• 召回 — Volkswagen

  Almost four months later, Volkswagen finally decided to recall certain 2021 vehicles along with 2020 and 2021 Atlas Cross Sport vehicles for a water drain tube of the air conditioning system that may be blocked.

来源摘录

• The 2021 Volkswagen Atlas and the 2020-2021 Atlas Cross Sport are being recalled due to an unexpected airbag deployment problem. In total, VW is bringing back 54,429 cars.

• The issue stems from air conditioning drain tubes that were not manufactured properly, causing them to be blocked. If a tube becomes blocked, water will then leak inside the vehicle and come into contact with the airbag module.

• Volkswagen’s fix will involve an inspection of the drain tube and a repair of the tube if necessary — VW says that it expects less than 1% of the recalled population to be affected. If the tube repair is necessary, VW will also replace the airbag control unit with a new one. As with any recall, all of the work will be done free of charge to the customer.
