2011-2012 model years VW Jetta sedans recall

German automaker Volkwagen is recalling 30,294 of its 2011-2012 model year Jetta sedans for tailpipe finishers that extend beyond the vehicle's rear bumper.

The 2011-2012 Volkswagen Jetta models recalled are equipped with dealership-ordered tailpipe extensions that are installed at the port during importation. This new 2011-2012 Volkswagen Jetta recall for the elongated tailpipe extensions affects 30,294 units in the United States and the recall is expected to official begin in early November. When the Jetta exhaust recall does begin, owners will be asked to return to their local Volkswagen dealership where a technician will inspect the tailpipe tips and, if necessary – the tailpipe extensions will be removed and replaced with units that are the proper length.

In a race to get more customers while cutting down production costs, Volkswagen has announced a recall involving 30.000 units of its 2011 and 2012 model years because of a tailpipe issue.

The German automaker didn’t say exactly when owners of the 2011 and 2012 model years Jetta will be announced to make a trip back to the dealerships.
