The approximate number of Volkswagen vehicles under recall is 37,979. Affected by the recall are the following models:

Model-years 2014-2015 Jetta sedans manufactured March 28 to November 24, 2014

Model-years 2014-2015 Passat sedans built between April 7, and November 18, 2014

Model-year 2015 Golf and GTI hatchbacks built between July 1, and November 20, 2014

The problem in the Volkswagen vehicles under recall is that the sealing cap at the fuel rail can fail. If this happens, the fuel may leak into the engine compartment. In the presence of an ignition source, car fire may result.

The automaker will replace the fuel tails with new parts. The dealers will perform all the necessary changes free of charge. Owners can contact Volkswagen at 800-893-5298 for more details about the recall.
