Buying a used 2024 Volkswagen Tiguan? Check these 2 recalls first
The 2024 Tiguan has 2 recalls in this group, both addressing a rearview camera image that may not display. That makes camera recall completion and actual reverse-image operation the central recall checks. Its 79 NHTSA owner complaints are unverified reports, including 29 electrical system, 21 unknown or other, 20 engine, and 10 back over prevention complaints. The complaint record also includes 3 crashes and 4 fires; those reports do not establish a shared cause.
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.
- Verify completion of both VIN-applicable camera recalls.
- Check reverse camera display for intermittent blank images.
- Request electrical and engine repair records, including any fire history.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Volkswagen dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
