What's wrong, in plain English

A bolt that connects the brake pedal to the brake booster may not have been properly installed during manufacturing. If this fastener fails, the brake pedal can come apart from the brake booster. When that happens, the vehicle can lose its ability to brake normally, which increases the risk of a crash. Dealers will inspect the brake booster and repair it as needed, free of charge.

What you should do

Check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to see if your vehicle is affected.
Contact an Audi dealer, or call Volkswagen customer service at 1-800-253-2834, to schedule the repair.
The repair is free.
Where do I find my VIN, and what do I tell the dealer?

Enter it at nhtsa.gov/recalls to see whether this recall is still open on your car. When you call the dealer, say you have an open safety recall and give them NHTSA campaign number 24V621000.
