Volkswagen Recall 97S8/T7: Power Sliding Door Wiring Harness Assembly
2009 Volkswagen Routan
This could result in an overheated latch and a fire within the rear sliding door could occur.
Electrical System — Wiring
- Summary
- Volkswagen is recalling certain model year 2009 Routan vehicles manufactured from June 2008 through July 2009. These vehicles may have been built with an improper routed wire harness that may have a condition where the lower sliding door hinge bracket can make contact and wear through the wire insulation. Contact with a 12V power feed circuit within the harness may cause a high resistive short circuit within the latch mechanism located inside of the sliding door.
- Actions
- Volkswagen will inspect the sliding door wire track wire assembly and the sliding door power drive unit wire assembly for damage, repair/replace as necessary, tie strap the two harnesses together and route the harnesses under the sliding door weather strip. This service will be performed free of charge. The safety recall began on October 15, 2010. Owners may contact Volkswagen at 1-800-822-8987.
