## What is wrong

Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. \(Volkswagen\) is recalling certain 2025 Tiguan vehicles. A software error may cause the body control module \(BCM\) system to reset. This may result in the ignition switching off, resulting in an engine stall.  It can also lead to a loss of certain controls, warning lights, exterior lighting, or failure of the rearview camera system. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard \(FMVSS\) numbers 101, "Controls and Displays," and 102, "Transmission shift lever sequence, starter interlock, and transmission braking effect," as well as FMVSS numbers 111 and 108.


## What can happen

An unexpected engine stall, loss of exterior lighting or warning lights, or failure of the rearview camera system can increase the risk of a crash.


## The remedy

Dealers will update the body control module \(BCM\) software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed October 6, 2026. Owners may contact Volkswagen customer service at 1\-800\-893\-5298. Volkswagen's number for this recall is 57KL. Vehicle Identification Numbers \(VINs\) involved in this recall became searchable on NHTSA.gov on September 17, 2026.
