Volkswagen bulletin V3925012079347_2
Volkswagen filed this with NHTSA as a service bulletin dated Jun 1, 2026, received Jul 7, 2026, about the power train. It names 3 model years (2024–2026). A service bulletin is not a safety recall: it is the manufacturer telling its dealers how to diagnose or repair a condition, and whether the work is paid for depends on the warranty in force. Quoting the number at a service desk can save a diagnosis.
