NHTSA Recall History
2006:
Brake light switch may have been incorrectly installed and could malfunction, causing brake lights to become inoperative or remain on.
2006-2008 GTI:
Some vehicles may not have a required cap, which disables headlight horizontal aim, and some vehicles will have a cap, which disables headlight vertical aim. This can inhibit proper headlight aim and decrease roadway illumination. Dealers will inspect for the presence of a cap in the socket of the low beam horizontal aiming screw and install one if missing, and inspect for the presence of a cap in the socket of the vertical aiming screw and remove the cap if present.
