My VW App does not yet show a recall but here is the official notification, and in a quick read it seems it should.

Anybody has seen their VW App show the recall?

Thanks. I did search before pointing but didn't find it. Maybe the search index is lagging... or "user's error".

I'll close the thread if I can; if not hopefully a moderator will.

I got the memo, here is what it says:

Volkswagen has decided that a defect, which relates to motor vehicle safety, exists in certain 2021 model year Volkswagen ID.4 vehicles. We would like to let you know more about this upcoming recall, and what this means for your vehicle. To help keep you informed, you will receive future communications from Volkswagen about this recall. About this Safety Recall: The high voltage (HV) battery management control unit may reset or, in rare events, the pulse inverter may be deactivated while driving. If the HV battery management control unit resets while driving, the vehicle's electric motor will not be supplied with power for the duration of the reset. This may lead to a loss of propulsion without warning, and may increase the risk of a crash. Right now, this recall repair is not yet available Currently your dealer does not have the recall remedy available to perform the recall work. Volkswagen is working to make the recall repair available as quickly as possible. By March 31st, 2023, you will receive the official recall notification letter via first class mail. This recall notification letter will provide information of the next steps you can take to obtain this software update. In the interim, if the recall condition described above occurs in your vehicle: The driver will receive an immediate warning in the instrument cluster.

Also, the first 13 characters of my vin are: WVGUNPE25MP06xxxx

Car is currently at the dealer for a defective module that they finally got working today. I am supposed to pick it up tomorrow and turn in my loaner. I wonder if I should wait to do that?

Appreciate the attempt but not necessary. Now moved to the "Recall" section with many other similar threads.

I am trying to get comfortable with picking up my car at the dealership after the recent repair. The App still does not tell me where the car is, but at least it now tells me the car has 76% battery level and the defroster will turn on. i know it used to tell me where I parked it, but that seems to no longer work. It has taken over 3 weeks to get it back to this level and now the dealer wants me to take it back after the VW memo says the car might try to kill me, so drive carefully.

Yes, My VW App shows this recall notification under the Service (wrench) icon, although the Remedy/Repair is not yet available.

I think all of the 2021s will have this. Mine just showed up in the App this afternoon also. Dealer is still not calling back, but I have the loaner already, so maybe I will just wait them out.

I have it on mine. It also shows there is no fix for it. I called VW customer service and was told it could be as late as late March. Hope not.
