Vehicle Software Issue

Most Volkswagen models sold domestically are experiencing delivery delays due to vehicle software issues, causing inconvenience to consumers.


The Volkswagen headquarters in Germany notified Volkswagen Korea around the 9th to "temporarily delay the delivery of all models except the Touareg."


The Volkswagen models with delayed deliveries include the Tiguan, Golf, Arteon, and the electric vehicle ID.4.

Some vehicles that were scheduled to be delivered to consumers are currently held up at showrooms due to the delivery delays.


Volkswagen Korea explained that they plan to normalize deliveries by the end of this month after sequentially updating the software of each model.


Volkswagen Korea stated, "We plan to resume deliveries starting with the ID.4 after software updates," adding, "We are making efforts to minimize consumer inconvenience by advancing the resumption schedule as much as possible."



Volkswagen Korea also temporarily suspended deliveries of all models sold domestically in January, which caused consumer dissatisfaction. At that time, the reason was a defect in the tripod function of the models released in Korea.
