HAMBURG (Reuters) – Volkswagen is halting deliveries of its Golf 8 model after a software problem was found in some vehicles, a spokesman said on Friday.
The software at issue enables emergency calls, a function required by E.U. regulations since 2018.
The company will decide in the next few days how to deal with affected cars, such as a recall and software update.
