Volkswagen has issued a recall of 1,467 vehicles due to a defect in the brake master cylinder, which can lead to reduced braking performance and increase the risk of accidents.
According to reports, the master cylinder may have been assembled with an incorrect secondary piston spring retainer, which can obstruct the brake fluid port and lead to reduced brake performance or even brake failure.
Affected vehicles include 2024 Atlas and 2024 Atlas Cross Sport models. Dealers will replace the brake master cylinder free of charge, with notification letters scheduled to be sent to owners in November.
