## What is wrong

Issue:

Some vehicles were built with an incorrect brake master cylinder. The master cylinder may be too short, which could cause it to fail. This could cause a complete loss of braking \(with the exception of the emergency/parking brake function\).

Safety Risk:

A loss of brakes can create the risk of a crash.

Corrective Actions:

Volkswagen will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to inspect the brake master cylinder. If your vehicle is equipped with the incorrect part, it will be replaced with the correct one.
