NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID: 99V248 Potential Number Of Units Affected: 51,900 Summary: The tie rods of the steering assembly are protected on each side by a seal to prevent moisture and dust particles from entering the swivel bearing mechanism. It is possible that some tie rod seals may not seal properly. If moisture and/or dust particles enter the swivel bearing mechanism, the swivel bearing could wear over time, diminishing the steering control of the vehicle. Remedy: Dealers will replace the tie rods. Owner notification began Oct. 15, 1999. Owners who do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact Volkswagen at 1-800-822-8987 or Audi at 1-800-822-2834. Dates of Manufacture: January - July 1998 Manufacturer Recall Number: UL/Audi Recall No. KW |
