Recall repairs are always free. Check your registration or VIN with a franchised dealer for your make.

Volkswagen Group Ireland Limited is conducting a voluntary recall of specific Volkswagen vehicles, including the ID. BUZZ, ID.BUZZ Cargo, ID.3, ID.7, and Amarok models. The recall is due to identified safety issues with these vehicles. For the ID models, a manufacturing error in the battery cells can lead to increased self-discharge, which may trigger a warning light and message indicating that the electronic system is not functioning correctly. This could result in thermal overload within the high-voltage battery.

In addition, the Amarok model has been recalled due to a potential loss of braking power from the electronic brake booster module. If this occurs, it may lead to longer brake pedal travel and increased braking distance, raising the risk of accidents. A total of 7 ID vehicles and 270 Amarok vehicles are affected in the Republic of Ireland, produced within specified date ranges.

Owners of the affected vehicles have been notified directly by Volkswagen Group Ireland Limited and are encouraged to contact customer care or their local retailer for further assistance.
