WHAT HAPPENED
Volkswagen has announced a recall in Japan affecting the Golf Touran 1.5/110kW, VW T-Cross 1.0/85kW, and Polo 1.0/70kW models due to a defect in the digital meter cluster (electrical device). The recall was registered with the Consumer Affairs Agency under ID 00000035422 and is scheduled to commence on June 18, 2026. The issue may cause the digital instrument display to malfunction, potentially affecting the driver’s ability to read critical vehicle information.
This recall is significant because a faulty digital meter cluster can obscure speed, warning lights, and other essential data, increasing the risk of accidents or unsafe driving conditions. The defect is classified as an electrical system problem, and Volkswagen is coordinating with Japan’s Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism to ensure all affected vehicles are repaired free of charge.
Owners of the listed models should take the following steps:
- Check if your vehicle is included by contacting an authorized Volkswagen dealer or visiting the official recall website with your vehicle identification number (VIN).
- Schedule an appointment for the free repair as soon as the program begins on June 18, 2026.
