Official summary

Today we have released a technical bulletin for 2014 MY Jetta vehicles addressing complaints of the fuel door sticking/difficult to open. In order to prevent customers from experiencing this issue, we are asking dealers to ensure that the fuel door of any 2014 MY Jetta opens properly prior to customer delivery. If the fuel door is difficult to open, please perform Technical Bulletin 55 14 01 (2036334).

Vehicles covered

What a TSB means. Technical service bulletins are repair guidance manufacturers send to dealers — they are not recalls, and repairs are not automatically free (warranty extensions are an exception worth checking). The full document is available via NHTSA’s vehicle lookup.
