Volkswagen recalls, complaints, and safety ratings

Across 20 Volkswagen models and 206 model years (2000–2027), matched NHTSA records on this site add up to 594 recalls and 26,647 complaints (recall file dated Oct 23, 2026; complaint file dated Oct 23, 2026). A campaign that covers more than one model year is counted on each of those pages, so the recall total is not a count of distinct campaigns. EPA combined mpg for non-electric configurations in the file dated Sep 29, 2026 runs from 13–44 mpg.
