The lug bolt holes on the wheels may have been machined incorrectly, preventing the wheel bolt from sufficiently attaching to the wheel bearing hub.
An insufficiently attached wheel may separate from the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
What to do
Volkswagen will notify owners, and dealers will inspect all four wheels -- and as necessary -- replace the wheels, lug bolt and wheel bearings free of charge.
The recall began March 4, 2021.
