2021 VOLKSWAGEN ATLAS CROSS SPORT Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2021 Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport has 7 recalls, the most serious involving fuel injectors that may be missing internal filters and can leak fuel, raising the risk of a fire, along with a steering knuckle that can fracture and cause sudden loss of vehicle control. Certain vehicles equipped with Continental Cross Contact LX Sport tires in size 255/50 R20 may have over-cured sidewalls that can crack or shed tread without warning, causing a sudden blowout. On the safety equipment side, door wiring harness contacts can corrode and delay the front side airbags from deploying in a side-impact crash. There are also a few visibility and monitoring concerns: the tire pressure monitoring system may fail to detect a simultaneous loss of pressure in all four tires, the rearview camera image can fail to appear when reversing, and the driver's side headlight may have been set too low at the factory, cutting down forward visibility at night.
