Airbag

Transport Canada recall 2019352 · manufacturer campaign 69Z5

17 July 2019

Transport Canada lists: CC 2015–2016 · Tiguan 2015–2016

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the airbag control unit may contain a defective capacitor. If the capacitor fails, it could result in a deployment of the airbags and/or seat belt pretensioners without a crash. This could also cause the airbag system to not deploy in the event of a crash.

Why it matters

Airbags or seat belt pretensioners that deploy without a crash could create a risk of injury and also increase the risk of a crash. Airbags that do not deploy in a crash could create an increased risk of injury.

What the dealer will do

The company will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their vehicle to a dealer to have updated airbag control unit software installed and, if necessary, the airbag control unit will be replaced.

Transport Canada recall 2019002 · manufacturer campaign 69S8 / 69Y5

3 January 2019

Transport Canada lists: R 8 2017 · TT 2016–2017 · CC 2015–2017 · Eos 2015 · and 1 more

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, long-term exposure to high absolute humidity and temperature, combined with high temperature cycling, may eventually degrade the propellant contained in the driver-front airbag. This could cause the airbag to deploy with more force than normal. If the airbag inflator ruptures, fragments could be propelled toward vehicle occupants or cause damage to the airbag assembly, preventing its proper function.

Why it matters

If the vehicle is involved in a crash requiring an airbag deployment, the airbag inflator could rupture and create a risk of injury.

What the dealer will do

Owners will be notified by mail and instructed to take their vehicle to a dealer to have the driver-front airbag inflator replaced. Note: The Canadian climate results in the propellant degrading slowly. This recall is being conducted as a precaution to address future risk. It is expected that all airbag inflators will be replaced before their function would be affected.

Fuel System

Transport Canada recall 2017398 · manufacturer campaign 20AE

16 August 2017

Transport Canada lists: CC 2009–2016 · Passat 2006–2010

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, there could be an interruption in electrical power to the fuel pump control module. This could result in the fuel pump running continuously, resulting in a drained battery and/or a no start condition, or cause a loss of motive power while the vehicle is in motion, which could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property.

What the dealer will do

Dealers will replace the fuel pump control module and relocate it within the vehicle.
