Volkswagen Jetta, Beetle, Passat Recall Issued Due to Oil Leak, Fire Risk April 22, 2014 Russell Maas Add Your CommentsRoughly 26,452 Volkswagen vehicles from the 2014 model year are being recalled due to a risk of transmission fluid leaks, which may pose a potential fire hazard if the fluid comes into contact with a hot surface. The Volkswagen recall (PDF) was announced by the U.S. Department of Transportation’s National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) on April 16, after a transmission fluid leak was observed during routine testing at a Port facility.The problems appear to be related to a faulty O-ring seal between the cooler and transmission, which may allow fluid to come in contact with a hot surface. This could result in an auto fire and occupant injury, as well as property damage.Do You Know about…Spinal Cord Stimulator lawsuitsSpinal cord stimulator lawsuits are being investigated for individuals who suffered unnecessary shocks, burns or other problems, often resulting in the need for additional surgery to remove the SCS.Learn MoreSEE IF YOU QUALIFY FOR COMPENSATIONDo You Know About…Spinal Cord Stimulator lawsuitsSpinal cord stimulator lawsuits are being investigated for individuals who suffered unnecessary shocks, burns or other problems, often resulting in the need for additional surgery to remove the SCS.Learn MoreSEE IF YOU QUALIFY FOR COMPENSATIONVolkswagen announced they have not received any reports of fires or injuries but out of precaution initiated a stop-sale of the potentially affected vehicles on April 8, pending the investigation.The Volkswagen recall includes 2014 Beetle, Beetle convertible, Jetta, and Passat vehicles equipped with the 1.8T engine and torque converter automatic transmission.
