All olkswagen is reviewing its 2023-2024 electric ID.4 hybrids with all encompassing sunroofs in the US. As per the Public Expressway Traffic Wellbeing Organization (NHTSA), all Volkswagen ID.4 models sold with its glass rooftop choice in the U.S. neglect to fulfill fire retardant wellbeing guidelines.

In a letter kept in touch with VW, the NHTSA said: ” The inside overhang for the all encompassing glass rooftop might be inadequately fire retardant. In that capacity, these vehicles neglect to follow the prerequisites of the Government Engine Vehicle Security Standard number 302, Combustibility of Inside Materials.'”

Sit back and relax, this doesn’t imply that the sunroof conceal will unexpectedly combust or anything. In case of a fire, any inside material that doesn’t fulfill fire retardant guidelines will just turn into extra fuel. Having fire retardant on specific inside materials simply diminishes the quantity of things that can consume, or if nothing else consume effectively, in this way restricting the size of the fire.

Fortunately, a quite simple fix and one’s covered by Volkswagen. Every one of the 23,883 impacted ID.4 proprietors should accept their vehicle to their closest VW seller to have fire retardant applied to the sunroof conceal, for nothing.

Not all ID.4s are optioned with the all encompassing sunroof however all models that in all actuality do have the choice are remembered for the review. The ID.4’s all encompassing sunroof is only a glass rooftop with a rollout covering, as the actual glass doesn’t open. You could actually open the overhang with normal voice orders, like let the vehicle know that there isn’t sufficient light in the lodge. In any case, presently, just ID.4 S models and up are accessible with the all encompassing sunroof for 2024.

Volkswagen will send warning letters to impacted proprietors on January 5, 2024, yet proprietors can call VW’s client support number to learn about their vehicle to hang tight for the letter.
