Each campaign in detail

  1. Rear suspension springs breaking (recall)

    Manufacturer recall

    A recall concerns the 2017-2019 Tiguan Allspace: a non-approved material was used for the rear springs during a limited production period, and a spring can break and damage the tyre. The recall provides for both rear axle springs to be replaced at a dealer.

    Fixed free of charge by a dealer and not counted in the reliability score: ask for proof the work was done (invoice, or a VIN check at a dealer).
