19V615000
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:IGNITION:ANTI-THEFT:CONTROL MODULE
Removing the key while the shift lever is in a position other than "Park" increases the risk of an unintended vehicle rollaway that may result in personal injury or a crash.
15V705000
ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE
If the camshaft lobe shears off there would be a loss of brake assist, lengthening the distance needed to stop the vehicle and increasing the risk of a crash.
15V627000
AIR BAGS:FRONTAL:SENSOR/CONTROL MODULE-INACTIVE
In the event of a crash, if the front passenger seat occupant is incorrectly classified or non-detected, the passenger frontal air bag may deploy improperly or not at all, increasing the risk of occupant injury.
15V028000

A fuel leak, in the presence of an ignition source, can result in a vehicle fire.

This page is about a model, not a car
Two 2015 VOLKSWAGEN JETTAs can have entirely different histories, and a recall campaign usually covers a build-date window rather than a whole model year — which a VIN does not encode, so only the door-jamb label settles it. Scanning the VIN adds the decode, the crash tests, the fuel economy and the complaints matched to that exact engine, trim and assembly plant.
