Volkswagen is recalling 99,064 of its 2021-2024 ID.4 vehicles because the door handles may allow water to leak into the internal circuit board. This moisture can cause the electronic door latch to malfunction, potentially resulting in the vehicle doors opening unexpectedly while you are driving. This recall expands upon previous recalls (23V-312 and 23V-213), and vehicles previously repaired under those campaigns must be brought in again for this new remedy.
A door that opens unexpectedly while the vehicle is in motion increases the risk of occupants falling out or being injured in a collision. Water entering the circuit board assembly creates an electrical fault that triggers the door's release mechanism without driver input.
Inspection and replacement of door handles and a software update.
