Volkswagen tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) sensors were incorrectly calibrated and may not detect the position of a wheel sensor after tire rotation.
The short version
Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. reported a problem with the tires pressure monitoring and regulating systems. Here is what owners need to know.
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) sensors were incorrectly calibrated and may not detect the position of a wheel sensor after tire rotation. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 138, "Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems."
The TPMS may misidentify a tire with low air pressure, increasing the risk of a crash.
Volkswagen will notify owners, and dealers will replace the wheel electronics and tire valves, free of charge.
