How to check if your Volkswagen Golf Cabrio has a recall

A recall covers specific build dates and vehicle identification numbers (VINs), not every Volkswagen Golf Cabrio on the road. To see whether yours is affected:

1. Look up your VIN or registration on the official recall checker for the country where the car is registered: MOLIT (South Korea), KBA (Germany), Traficom (Finland), RappelConso (France), DVSA (UK).
2. Ask an authorised Volkswagen dealer: recall repairs are free, including on used cars and cars serviced elsewhere.
3. Add the car to your watched vehicles on Recaller Book and get an email when a new campaign is published for it.
