Canadian regulations require that speed be displayed in either kilometers per hour (km/h) or in both km/h and mph.rnrnSafety Risk: rnThis small error does not affect vehicle safety.rnrnCorrective Actions: rnThis is not a recall. Volkswagen has made changes to ensure that all new vehicle speedometers display mph and km/h when the display distance is set to miles.
