Certain passenger vehicles equipped with 2.8 liter VR6 engines fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard no. 110, "Tire Selection And Rims." The recommended cold tire inflation pressure published on the label for tires of the size 205/50 R15 86h is 0.1 bar (1.45 psi) too low. It should be 2.5 bar (36.3 psi). The label recommends 2.4 bar (34.8 psi = 35 psi).

There is no summary currently available.

Owners will be provided with corrected labels, or a dealer can install the label if the owner wishes. Owner notification is expected to begin June 2, 2003. Owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact Volkswagen at 1-800-822-8987.

On certain passenger vehicles equipped with gasoline engines and double-layer fuel tanks, tension may exist on the fuel supply line. This may cause the fuel pump supply nipple to develop a crack.

Crack development could result in a leak. Leaking fuel, in the presence of an ignition source, may cause a fire.

Dealers will inspect the fuel supply line for tension, and inspect the fuel pump supply nipple for cracking. If necessary the fuel line and the fuel pump will be replaced. The recall is expected to begin on July 15, 2005. Owners should contact Volkswagen at 1-800-822-8987.
