Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Volkswagen is recalling 75,323 model year 2025 Jetta and Taos vehicles because the instrument panel may fail to display critical gauges and warning lights. This failure means the vehicles do not comply with federal safety standards for controls and displays. Dealers will update the instrument panel software or replace the physical instrument cluster as necessary, free of charge.

Risk

If the instrument panel fails, drivers may lose access to critical safety information such as the speedometer or engine warning lights, significantly increasing the risk of a crash.

  2. If your vehicle is affected, contact an authorized Volkswagen dealer to schedule a free appointment for an instrument panel software update or a full cluster replacement.
  3. Watch for an official owner notification letter, which is expected to be mailed by May 22, 2026.
  4. Refer to Volkswagen recall number 90Z5 when speaking with the dealer or customer service representative.
