Skoda Kushaq, Slavia, Volkswagen Virtus, Taigun voluntary recall, welding fault -DellyRanks

According to a listing on SIAM’s voluntary recall website, select units of the Skoda-Volkswagen India 2.0 cars – Kushaq, Slavia, Taigun and Virtus – are to be recalled due to a production process irregularity at the component supplier’s end.

  1. Recall is due to welding fault in ‘track control arm’
  2. 52 models have been affected in total

As per the listing, it is suspected that during the welding process, the weld seam on the ‘track control arm’ may have been missed. If the said component suffers a failure, it may result in sudden loss of vehicle control and stability without any prior warning.  


A total of 52 vehicles are said to be affected which includes 38 units of Taigun and Virtus and 14 units of Kushaq and Slavia. The affected models were manufactured between November 29, 2023 and January 20, 2024. The recall was officially registered on October 28, 2024.

Skoda-Volkswagen, however, have not yet released an official statement regarding this. It is likely both carmakers will get in touch with owners of the affected vehicles for a voluntary inspection and update. As is the case with recalls, the fix will be carried out free of cost.
