20196102019-12-06. Powertrain. Issue: On certain Jetta Hybrid models, the accumulator housing of the transmission could crack. If this happens, the transmission warning light will turn on and, if a driver continues to use the vehicle, there could be a sudden loss of power to the wheels. Safety Risk: A sudden of loss 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 dealer to install a transmission repair kit to replace the affected parts.
20194232019-08-22. Powertrain. Issue: On certain vehicles, a build-up of silicate on the shift lever switch could cause the transmission to detect that it is in the Park position when it isn't. This could allow the ignition key to be removed when the transmission is not in the Park position. If the parking brake is not applied, this could allow the car to roll away. Safety Risk: If the transmission position is not displayed correctly, a user may not know that the vehicle is not in the PARK position. If the parking brake is not applied, this could create a risk of a vehicle roll-away and increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: The company will notify owners by mail. Owners will be instructed to take their vehicle to a dealer to have a new shift lever micro switch and control unit installed.
20134042013-11-13. Powertrain. On certain hybrid models equipped with direct-shift gearboxes, corrosion can occur inside the gearbox due to incompatible gearbox lubricant additives, causing electrical shorts and blowing gearbox fuses. This could result in a loss of motive power, which could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the existing gearbox lubricant with an updated formulation.

A campaign lists a year, a make and a model, and often only some of the vehicles built. A list with nothing on it is not a clearance either. The lookups below check one VIN.
