Recall

VOLKSWAGEN PASSAT CC RECALL 5750 CARS

Volkswagen’s Passat v2.0, the Passat CC, will be recalled for issues relating to the wiring harnesses for front seatbelts. Strangely enough, this leads to the potential for undeployed airbags in the event of a crash.

5,750 versions of the ’09 Volkswagen Passat CC fall under this Recall, says NHTSA. Dealers will begin inspecting the wiring harnesses of right front passenger seats and replacing if necessary sometime in April. For more on the Passat CC, check out this 3 To Beat.

Days
Day 198 — Iran's Persian Gulf Strait Authority published an updated list of 77 vessels it accuses of violating its Strait of Hormuz protocols, saying listed ships face fines, detention or confiscation and warning insurers, P&I clubs and classification societies against serving them (Iran International and Insurance Journal, Sep 14; Middle East Monitor, Sep 15). US Central Command said an IRGC claim that a supertanker struck mines in the strait was false; neither account is independently confirmed. Houthi forces said they struck the Khamis Mushait air base in southern Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia's East-West pipeline entered a fifth day shut. AAA's national diesel average set a 12th consecutive record at $6.2694/gal and California diesel set a fresh state record at $8.2124/gal.
