Volkswagen of America is conducting a voluntary recall of certain Jettas, Jetta SportWagens and Golfs equipped with the 2.0 liter TDI Clean Diesel engine.

The affected cars are Jettas and Jetta SportWagens built from May 2008 through September 2011. Golfs produced from May 2009 through September 2011 are also affected.
