## What is wrong

Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. \(Volkswagen\) is recalling certain model year 2013\-2015 Beetle vehicles manufactured June 13, 2013, to July 3, 2014.  The glass sunroofs in the affected vehicles may break when the vehicles are operated over a hard road surface or strike a pothole.


## What can happen

Vehicle occupants could be injured by falling glass.  A sunroof break during vehicle operation also increases the risk of driver distraction and a resulting vehicle crash.


## The remedy

Volkswagen will notify owners, and dealers will replace the sunroof, free of charge. The recall began on December 15, 2015. Owners may contact Volkswagen customer service at 1\-800\-822\-8987.  Volkswagen's number for this recall is 60B9.


## Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1\-888\-327\-4236 \(TTY 1\-800\-424\-9153\), or go to www.safercar.gov.
