Volkswagen recalls 2023 Golf hatchbacks for strut issue
Volkswagen Golf is recalling 59 of its 2023 Golf R A8 and Golf GTI vehicles because during strut assembly, an issue may have caused a deformation of the strut mount. If the strut mount is deformed, it can lead to improper torque on one of the bolted connections on the right or left suspension strut mounting, which can increase the risk of a crash without warning, the company said in a NHTSA safety report.
Based on vehicle driving tests, customers may not notice the issue, Volkswagen said. Dealers will inspect and replace the right and/or left suspension strut mountings, as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed August 18, 2023. Owners may contact Volkswagen’s customer service at 1-800-893-5298. Volkswagen’s number for this recall is 40T3.
Recalled vehicles:
- 2023 Volkswagen Golf R (9)

Volkswagen recalls ID.4 electric SUVs for rearview camera issue
Volkswagen is recalling four of its 2022 ID.4 SUVs because the replacement infotainment central control unit (CCU) installed in the vehicle during a repair contains incorrect software that can cause the rearview camera image to be delayed or deactivated when reversing. This can reduce the driver’s rear visibility and increase the risk of a crash and injury to people outside the vehicle, the company said in a safety report filed with NHTSA.
Volkswagen dealers will update the software, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed August 18, 2023. Owners may contact Volkswagen’s customer service at 1-800-893-5298. Volkswagen’s number for this recall is 93S7.
