February 13, 2019 NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V094000
No Visual Warning of Brake Failure/FMVSS 135;101
If the driver is not alerted when there is a problem with brakes, the driver may lose control of the vehicle while attempting to brake, increasing the risk of crash.
NHTSA Campaign Number: 19V094
Manufacturer Volkswagen Group of America, Inc.
Components ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Number of Units Affected 4,064
Summary
Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. (Volkswagen) is recalling certain 2019 Beetle and Beetle Convertible vehicles. The instrument cluster may not provide a visual warning when a brake system failure is detected. As a result, the vehicles fail to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 135, “Light vehicle brake systems” and number 101, “Controls and displays.”
Remedy
Volkswagen will notify owners, and dealers will update the instrument cluster software, free of charge. The recall began March 7, 2019. Owners may contact Volkswagen customer service at 1-800-893-5298. Volkswagen’s number for this recall is 90L8.
Notes
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.

|||||||||
| Problem Description | When the ESP or ABS control unit detects a failure in the brake system regarding the brake force distribution EBV, no visual warning is displayed in the instrument cluster. Because the driver will not see a warning in the instrument cluster when the malfunction occurs, there is a risk of losing control of the car during emergency braking. This may lead to a crash without warning. | |||||||||
| Corrective Action | Criteria 01 vehicles: Update instrument cluster software.
Criteria 02 vehicles: Replace instrument cluster (USA: 12 vehicles / Canada: 3 (three) vehicles) |
|||||||||
| Parts Information | Criteria 01 vehicles: Software update only; no parts required.
Criteria 02 vehicles: Replace instrument cluster. Due to the small number of affected vehicles, parts will not be allocated prior to launch. If you need parts to support this recall repair, please contact the Parts Specialists via phone (800-767-6552), email (VWoAPartsSpecialists@vw.com) or chat/text with the VIN to order. |

Section B – Criteria 01, Update Instrument Cluster Software
NOTE
Prior to launching the VAS Diagnostic Tester and starting an update, ensure the following conditions are met; The ODIS software is completely up to date.
• Refer to the “Alerts” section on ServiceNet home page for the current ODIS version. The battery charger is connected to the vehicle battery and remains connected for the duration of the software update.
• Battery voltage must remain above 12.5 volts for the duration of the software update. Failure to do so may cause the update to fail, which could result in damage to the control module. Control modules damaged by insufficient voltage will not be covered. The screen saver and power saving settings are off.
• Failure to do so may result in the tester entering power save mode during the software update, which could result in damage to the control module. The VAS Diagnostic Tester is plugged in using the supplied power adapters.
• Under no circumstances should the tester be used on battery power alone during the software update. Failure to do so may result in the tester powering off during the update, which could result in damage to the control module. If using a Bluetooth transmitter head, it is connected to the tester with a USB cable.
• Performing a software update using a Bluetooth connection increases the risk of losing connection during the update, which could result in damage to the control module.
It also greatly increases the time required to perform the update. Requests for additional time or parts will be denied if the GFF log shows the update was performed using Bluetooth. The Bluetooth function of the scan tool is physically switched off <see pictures below>.

Reprogramming
Overview – Introduction
The Immobilizer is a theft-deterrent device that adds a layer of security to VWGoA vehicles that include the following brands: Audi, Bentley, Lamborghini, and VW. Certain repairs such as replacing emission parts cannot be performed without resetting the immobilizer code for the vehicle. This is done by a technician using the VAS for PC software to synchronize the immobilizer code embedded in the ignition key with other codes resident on parts such as the Transmission Control Module, Engine Control Module, and Instrument Cluster.
Before you can replace an emission part
Whenever you replace an emission-related control module, the immobilizer must be reset using the VAS for PC software. This can only be done if you meet the following requirements:
- You have enrolled into the program (see step 1 - Complete Pass Thru Enrollment Forms)
- You have received an email from VWGoA that contains a Security ID and Password to access the immobilizer application hosted in Germany
- You have received an email from VWGoA that contains a certificate file (e.g. IndepeDeale.30001.300999.pfx)
- You have installed the certificate onto your PC
- You have obtained a J 2534-1 Pass Thru device (see recommended J 2534-1 Pass Thru devices)
- You have performed the steps outlined in VAS for PC Setup
Recommended J 2534-1 Pass Thru devices
Pass thru devices are available for purchase from a recommended Manufacturer for registered workshops to perform Immobilizer functions. The Pass Thru devices that have been tested to work with VAS for PC follow:
