Volskwagen Recalls 290,000 Diesel Vehicles 2003 - 2004??

Volkswagen said today it is recalling 290,000 diesel vehicles worldwide to carry out checks on their fuel pumps.

The carmaker said it was contacting owners of vehicles with three? or four-cylinder diesel engines that were built between March and August of this year. The recall affects the Volkswagen, Audi, Seat and Skoda brands, the company said.

Volkswagen said a defect during the manufacturing process of a bolt on the cover of the fuel pump could, ?in isolated cases,? lead to the bolt breaking ? possibly resulting in a leakage of diesel fuel.
