Volkswagen recalls Touran EcoFuel to service
Volkswagen has issued a global recall for approx. 5,900 Touran EcoFuel vehicles from model years 2005 to 2009, of which approx. 3,800 are in Germany. The campaign will replace the front gas bottles at service centres as a precautionary measure. On some of these vehicles, the outer skin may possibly no longer provide the necessary corrosion protection due to damage caused by external influences. Fitting will be carried out at authorised Volkswagen service centres.
The problem was detected during internal tests and has already been rectified in current production. Vehicle owners will be contacted directly by Volkswagen. Repairs at service centres will be free of charge and will be carried out as quickly as possible by arrangement.
