Volkswagen EVs in Germany recalled over fire risk
German automaker Volkswagen has announced a recall of approximately 72,700 electric vehicles worldwide, including around 10,000 in Germany, due to potential defects in high-voltage battery cells that could, in rare cases, cause overheating and fires. The affected models include the ID.3, ID.4, ID.7, ID. Buzz, and Cupra Born produced between 2022 and 2025, with the company citing manufacturing errors from suppliers. Owners are advised not to charge their batteries beyond 80% until they have them checked at authorized workshops, as software updates or battery component replacements may be necessary to ensure safety. This action is part of a previous recall campaign that involved over 90,000 vehicles globally, aiming to protect users from the risks associated with overheating or fire.
