2009 Volkswagen Jetta Recalls

The 2009 Volkswagen Jetta has 5 recalls, with three separate fire risks: fuel lines on both the 2.5L gasoline engine and the 2.0L TDI diesel engine can leak fuel onto hot engine surfaces or near ignition sources.

On the gasoline engine, a plastic tab on the windshield washer fluid reservoir can rub against an underhood fuel supply line until it wears through and leaks. On diesel-equipped models, the fuel injection lines can crack and allow diesel to drip onto hot engine components. There is also a brake system concern: the anti-lock brake and electronic stability control unit can fail during activation, meaning the vehicle may not respond as expected during hard braking or in a skid, raising the risk of losing control. The fifth recall is a compliance filing covering labeling or documentation requirements, and while the regulator notes it could theoretically increase the risk of a crash, fire, or injury, no specific mechanical defect is described.
