If this happens, the spoiler could cause injury by striking persons outside the vehicle or could become an obstacle to other drivers, possibly resulting in a crash.

Summary

Actions

Dealers will install reinforcement wedges to the roof edge spoiler free of charge. The recall is expected to begin during August 2009. Owner may contact Volkswagen at 1-800-822-8987.
