NHTSA Campaign 06V454000 Recall Details

What This Recall Means

Component

AIR BAGS:FRONTAL

What Happened

The air bag control unit in your vehicle is the brain that decides when to deploy the air bags in a crash. In some cases, a weak battery can cause this unit to malfunction, and the passenger side air bag might not work.

Risk if Unfixed

If you're in a frontal crash and the passenger side air bag doesn't deploy, you're at greater risk of injury to the person sitting in the passenger seat.

How to Get This Fixed

Free Fix

Your Audi dealer will update the air bag control module's software for free, so schedule an appointment as soon as possible to ensure your safety on the road.
