2022 Volkswagen ATLAS

  • Date of Incident: Nov-11, 2024
  • Date complaint filed: Nov-12, 2024
  • Failed components: AIR BAGS

This safety recall has been open for quite some time. I feel unsafe driving with anyone in the passenger seat. When i contacted vw, they simply informed me that a remedy is not yet available. Vw says that owners should avoid use of the front passenger seat if possible until the recall repairs have been made.
