Due to an incorrect configuration of the Body-Control Module (BCM), a failure of the front LEDs direction indicators may not be detected and signalled on the instrument panel with vehicles manufactured between 2013 and 2015.

The Audi Q3 from 2014-2018 was recalled in August 2019 for the same reason – we wrote here; while Seat Ateca and Seat Leon produced between November 2016 and July 2018 are also affected.

The recall´s internal code is “97DR“. Skoda Auto has not registered any accidents or injuries due to this defect. The spokesperson also confirmed to autoservicepraxis.de website, that the repairs will not start before the third calendar week of 2020.
