How to check if your Volkswagen VW 1.6 has a recall

Look up your VIN or registration on the official recall checker for the country where the car is registered: MLIT (Japan).
Ask an authorised Volkswagen dealer: recall repairs are free, including on used cars and cars serviced elsewhere.
Add the car to your watched vehicles on Recaller Book and get an email when a new campaign is published for it.
