Volkswagen is recalling approximately 79,965 of its 2021-2023 ID.4 electric vehicles due to a software defect that affects the interior screens. The center infotainment display and the driver's instrument panel may fail to turn on or could randomly restart while the vehicle is in motion. This software issue can result in the sudden loss of the speedometer display and the rearview camera image, which violates federal safety standards and increases the risk of a collision. Owners can have this issue resolved through a free software update provided by Volkswagen dealers.
The failure of these displays prevents the driver from seeing critical safety information like vehicle speed or the rearview camera image while reversing, significantly increasing the risk of a crash.
