Volkswagen Tiguan: Seat belts can tear in an accident

Volkswagen is recalling 2,605 Tiguan vehicles manufactured in 2024 to authorized workshops worldwide. The reason for the recall is that damage to the seat belts on the front seats caused by the seat height adjustment can lead to the belts tearing during an accident.

In an authorized workshop, the manual handles for the seat height adjustment will be replaced with new handles with the correct felt on both front seats.

The Kraftfahrt-Bundesamt (KBA) monitors the recall under the reference number “14606R“. The internal manufacturer code is “72DV“.
