| Description of the problem | I took my car to get this recall done "recall subject : fmvss 138 tpms sensor" with campaign number 11v312000, but 2 vw dealership that i visited refused to fix this recall saying that my vin number doesn't have this recall. (my model has this recall based on this website). However, my car started having this issue a year and half i bought my car. "with the incorrect tpms sensors, drivers will receive a constant warning from the tire pressure monitor system. The system alerts the driver but, due to incorrect tpms sensors, the system cannot determine if the vehicle tires are properly inflated. This increases the risk that the vehicle will be driven with one or more underinflated tires, increasing the risk of a tire failure that may lead to a crash." vw said it will cost me $1300 to fix this issue and i know my car has this recall... But for some reason my vin is not included until this recall. Could you include my vin to this recall so that i can get if fixed? |
