Volkswagen touch switch for the sunroof may be too sensitive, allowing it to be inadvertently pressed.
The short version
Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. reported a problem with the visibility sun/moon roof assembly. Here is what owners need to know.
The touch switch for the sunroof may be too sensitive, allowing it to be inadvertently pressed. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 118, "Power-Operated Window Systems."
A sunroof switch that is inadvertently pressed can result in unintended auto-closure of the sunroof, increasing the risk of injury.
Take it to a dealer — they will replace the roof module switch, free of charge.
