The 2017 Volkswagen CC has 3 recalls, the most serious being a driver's frontal airbag inflator that can explode during deployment, sending metal fragments into the cabin and potentially causing serious injury to occupants.
The second recall involves incorrect front head restraints that may have been installed on certain vehicles. If the headrest does not fit or position properly, it cannot adequately support the occupant's head in a crash, raising the risk of neck or head injury. The third recall applies to a small number of vehicles that were originally used internally by Volkswagen and later sold to the public without full confirmation that they met all applicable regulatory requirements, and which may have been modified before sale, creating a broad but unspecified risk of injury, crash, or fire.
