Issue

Issue:
On certain vehicles, a software problem could cause the high-voltage battery management control module to reset or the pulse inverter to deactivate. If this happens while driving, the electric motor would not supply power to the wheels.
Note: If this happens, you may see a warning message on the instrument panel.

Safety Risk:
A sudden loss of power to the wheels could increase the risk of a crash.

Corrective Actions:
Volkswagen will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealership to update the high-voltage battery control unit and the pulse inverter control unit software.
