Recall 2004187

The issue

Certain Volkswagen Phaeton, Touareg, and Audi A8L vehicles do not comply with the requirements of CMVSS 114. The steering wheel does not lock when the key is removed from the ignition switch using the optionally provided override device that permits key removal in the event of electrical system failure or when the transmission is not in the PARK position. Correction: Since this does not pose any safety risk, no corrective action is required.

Description (français)

Certains Volkswagen Phaeton, Touareg, et Audi A8L ne satisfont pas aux exigences de la NSVAC 114. Le volant ne se bloque pas quand on retire la clé de contact en utilisant le dispositif de surpassement offert en option qui permet d'enlever la clé en cas de panne du circuit électrique ou lorsque la boîte de vitesse n'est pas en position de stationnement (PARK). Correction : Puisque cette défectuosité ne représente pas de risque pour la sécurité, aucune mesure corrective n'est requise.
