Volkswagen Crafter: Faulty passenger airbags

Volkswagen is recalling 23,058 Crafter manufactured between 2006 and 2017 to authorised workshops worldwide. The reason for the recall is that a fault in the gas generator of the front passenger airbag can lead to uncontrolled deployment and the release of metal fragments that can injure the occupants when the airbag is deployed.

In an authorized workshop, the passenger airbag will be replaced.

The Kraftfahrt-Bundesamt (KBA) monitors the recall under the two reference numbers “14033R” (2,349 vehicles manufactured in 2006) and “14237R” (20,709 vehicles manufactured between 2007 and 2017). The internal manufacturer code is “69FE“.

What should an owner do if there's a recall?

Please note that the recall may not apply to all vehicles produced in a given period. If you think your car might be affected, you should immediately contact a dealer or workshop officially authorised to perform repairs on behalf of the manufacturer and ask for the details. You can use our sample request text. After reporting the vehicle's VIN code, you will find out if the defect is present on your car, or if it has already been resolved by the previous owner if the car was purchased second-hand.
