Volkswagen / VWP-26-07

VW Atlas 3.6L Water Pump Warranty Extension

The original bulletin covers a warranty-defect failure of the main-engine water pump or its gasket.

Original document reviewed · Sep 29, 2026
Source discrepancy identified

The NHTSA bulk summary labels this as main-engine wiring-harness coverage. The attached VWP-26-07 PDF instead identifies the main-engine water pump. This explainer follows the original PDF; ask Volkswagen to confirm the VIN-specific NA6 coverage.

01 / Manufacturer response

What did the manufacturer do?

An authorized Volkswagen dealer replaces a qualifying failed pump or gasket under the specified cost-sharing terms.

02 / Applicability

Which vehicles are listed?

Applicable 2018–2022 Atlas and Atlas Cross Sport 3.6L settlement-class vehicles with the NA6 warranty key.

The document describes a defined set of vehicles and conditions. A matching badge or model year alone is not an eligibility decision.

03 / Coverage conditions

What should you check first?

  • The extension transfers to subsequent owners.
  • Totaled vehicles and specified outside-influence damage are excluded.

Take these questions to the dealer.

Ask for the eligibility result, diagnosis and any customer contribution in writing. Keep earlier repair invoices if reimbursement may apply. Recallfolio does not check or store your VIN.
