Default Three recalls in one...in addition to the three or more in the past year or so

I haven't even got the last one (brake light switch) done yet, now I can get a two (or three) fer out of the visit. Or maybe I should just hold off a couple of months for the next one...

Yah, those Germans, they are certainly safety-minded. But they need to work a bit on their design skills.

This is amusing:
"Volkswagen plans to notify owners of the recall, but says drivers who smell fuel should take the vehicle to a Volkswagen dealer or authorized repair shop."
