Known issues on the 2001 TT. Five recalls are on federal record for this model year. Two separate campaigns cover the driver's frontal air bag inflator module: non-azide driver inflators that lack phase-stabilized ammonium nitrate propellant can absorb moisture and deploy improperly in a crash, failing to properly protect the occupant. A third covers aftermarket Tru-Flow water pumps sold as replacement parts, where a timing belt failure may cause the engine to shut down, potentially increasing the risk of a vehicle crash. A fourth covers rear suspension corrosion, where moisture entering the rear track control arm's mounting bushing and bolt can impede the arm's free movement. A fifth covers aftermarket Cardone master cylinders, where a failed seal can leak brake fluid and cause poor braking performance. Owners have filed 132 complaints for the year, and no technical service bulletins are logged. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind each of those systems are here.
From a timing belt and water pump job to a rear suspension inspection or a brake system bleed, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your specific 2001 TT.
