I earlier made a report about my issue- but since then I discovered that BOTH rear springs were broken - multiple times- Repair was completed and I-??ve attached photos of old parts Additional research shows that VW has an active recall campaign open on rear springs for the 2013 and 2014 Sportwagen and some 2015, but not the 2015 that I own-??.

The contact owns a 2015 Volkswagen Golf Sportwagen. The contact stated that upon parking the vehicle, the tire pressure warning light was illuminated. The contact stated that the rear end of the vehicle was very low. Additionally, her children informed her that their buttocks hurt whenever the vehicle would hit a bump while driving. The contact was able to continue to drive the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who diagnosed the failure as a bilateral rear coil spring fracture. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that they could not assist because the VIN was not included in NHTSA Campaign Number: 19V188000 (Suspension). The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 60,000.
