Volkswagen’s recall comes after 47 people complained to U.S. safety regulators about the unexpected braking issue with some reporting nearly being rear-ended by other vehicles.
A 2020 Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport is on display at a Volkswagen event in Los Angeles, California. is recalling more than 246,000 SUVs in the U.S. and Canada because faulty wiring harnesses can make them brake unexpectedly, sometimes while in traffic.
says in documents posted Friday by The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that the recall covers certain Atlas SUVs from the 2019 through 2023 model years, as well as the 2020 through 2023 Atlas Cross Sport.The documents say the electrical contacts on a wiring harness in either of the front doors can corrode, interrupting electrical connections. The problem can cause the side air bags to deploy late in a crash, and the parking brake can come on unexpectedly.
Kendall Heiman, a Lawrence, Kansas, clinical social worker, said her 2021 Atlas Cross Sport tried to stop multiple times while she was driving on roads, often while it was decelerating. Heiman said she was nearly rear-ended by another SUV while heading into a roundabout. It also braked while she was exiting a highway, she said.She and others complained that VW had no parts available to fix their vehicles, which sat at dealerships for more than two months.
