Each campaign in detail

  1. Recall: airbag and seatbelt pretensioner

    Manufacturer recall

    Touran cars built between 8 July 2016 and 6 February 2017 have been recalled: a different mixture in the igniter may prevent the driver or passenger airbag or the seatbelt pretensioner from deploying in an accident. What Car? also reports a manufacturing defect in the airbag and pretensioner; the check is carried out by VIN at a dealership.

    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).
