What Happened
Your Audi's passenger side airbag is a critical safety feature that deploys in a crash to protect you. In some 2010-2011 models, the airbag's inflator can fail in extreme conditions, like high humidity and temperature changes, causing it to explode.
Risk if Unfixed
If the airbag inflator explodes, sharp metal pieces could fly towards you or other passengers, causing serious injury or even death.
Free Fix
Your Audi dealer will replace the faulty airbag inflator with a safe one, at no cost to you. They've already sent you a notice, and when the new parts are ready, they'll contact you to schedule the repair, which will be done free of charge.
