Before you buy
- Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
- Request fuel-injector and engine-bearing recall completion records.
- Verify airbag, hitch-bolt, and rear trailing-arm bolt recall repairs.
- Test the rearview display and ask about brake, electrical, or engine problems.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Volkswagen dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
