Known issues on the 2020 Golf. NHTSA holds 2 recalls for the 2020 Golf. On certain front-wheel-drive 2020 Golf vehicles, fuel could slip past a failed suction jet pump seal in the tank, enter the evaporative emissions system and leak from the charcoal canister, where an ignition source could light it; dealers replaced the pump. The tire pressure monitoring system on certain 2020 Golf vehicles might not warn quickly enough when the tires lost air together, and a software update was the fix. Owners made 6 complaints, 2 about the electrical system and 1 apiece about stability control, the engine, exterior lighting and the gasoline fuel system. Fuel system and electrical procedures, specifications and wiring diagrams are part of the manual.
