On certain Golf, GTI, Jetta, Jetta wagon, New Beetle, New Beetle convertible, Passat and Passat wagon, the brake lamp switch may malfunction.

Correction:  Dealers will replace the brake lamp switch with a newly revised version.  This action includes vehicles previously affected by Transport Canada recall 03\-184 and 04\-075.  The switch installed during this prior repair may not function properly. Note: parts available December 2006.
- [2005107](/recalls/tc/2005107.md), 2005-04-14: Fuel System. On certain vehicles equipped with a gasoline engine, fuel supply line tension may cause the fuel pump supply nipple to crack, which could result in a leak.  A fuel leak, in the presence of an ignition source, may cause a fire.  Correction: Dealers will inspect the fuel supply line for tension, and inspect the fuel pump supply nipple for cracks.  If tension is present in the fuel supply line, it will be replaced.  If the fuel pump supply nipple is cracked, both the fuel line and the fuel pump will be replaced.
