Vw Caddy: Brake Line Bolted Connection
Recall Summary Volkswagen is recalling 117 Caddy vehicles from a specific production period due to a fault in the rear left brake line connection that can cause brake fluid leaks. A loss of brake fluid can reduce braking performance, though the vehicle's warning system will alert the driver to low fluid levels. Affected owners should have the rear left brake line connection checked and modified.
