Corrective Actions: Volkswagen will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to install an extension for the fuel pressure sensor wiring harness.

Safety Risk: Warnings, tell-tales and gauges that don't display could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Volkswagen will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to update the vehicle software.
