Volkswagen service campaign 10LP
Volkswagen filed this with NHTSA as a service campaign dated Nov 11, 2025, received Dec 5, 2025, about the engine — 2 documents under this number: Circular 10LP, Dealer 10LP. It names 2 model years (2022–2023). A service campaign is not a safety recall — there is no NHTSA campaign number and no federal requirement — but it is usually work the manufacturer pays for on the vehicles it names; the dealer checks the VIN against the manufacturer’s list.
What the bulletin says
Source: NHTSA's summary of the manufacturer's communicationThe positive crankcase ventilation (PCV) valve / oil separator may fail prematurely due to material aging. If this happens, the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) will illuminate. While this issue does not directly impact vehicle tailpipe emissions, the presence of an illuminated MIL can impact a vehicle’s ability to pass an emissions inspection.

The summary is NHTSA’s abstract of the document, as filed under 49 CFR 579.5. One communication is usually filed as several documents — the bulletin, a dealer notice, an owner letter — and the number on any of them finds this page. A PDF link is shown only once NHTSA’s own server has been seen to serve that document; the rest are checked over the following nights. Quote the number at a service desk; it is what the dealer’s system is keyed on.

Common questions
Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR 579.5Is Volkswagen 10LP a recall?
No. A service campaign is a manufacturer communication filed with NHTSA under 49 CFR 579.5; a safety recall carries an NHTSA campaign number (two digits, a letter, six digits) and a federal duty to repair for free. Check the vehicle’s recalls by VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls, or on its page here.
Is the 10LP repair free?
A service campaign is usually paid by the manufacturer on the vehicles it names, within the terms and time limit the document sets; the dealer checks the VIN against the manufacturer’s list.
Which vehicles does 10LP cover?
The manufacturer filed it against 2 model years: 2023 Volkswagen Atlas, 2022 Volkswagen Atlas. Whether one particular vehicle is affected is a matter of its VIN and its build, not its model year alone.
