Issue
On certain vehicles, the passenger occupant detection system (PODS) may malfunction. This could cause the airbag system to turn off the passenger-front airbag even when a passenger is seated.
Safety Risk
An airbag that is turned off could increase the risk of injury to a passenger in a crash.
Corrective Actions
Volkswagen will notify owners by mail. The corrective actions for this recall are under development. Volkswagen advises that you shouldn't use the front passenger seat until the recall repairs are completed.
