2024 Volkswagen Tiguan: Back Over Prevention recall
NHTSA campaign 26V321000 · 8 units potentially affected · filed May 20, 2026
What's wrong
Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. (Volkswagen) is recalling certain 2024 Tiguan vehicles previously repaired under recall 25V082. An error may occur in the camera control unit at vehicle startup, resulting in the rearview camera image not displaying as intended. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 111, "Rear Visibility."
Why it matters
A rearview camera that does not display an image can reduce the driver's rear view, increasing the risk of a crash.

Dealers will update the camera control unit software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed June 4, 2026. Owners may contact Volkswagen customer service at 1-800-893-5298.
