What This Recall Means

Component

AIR BAGS:FRONTAL:DRIVER SIDE:INFLATOR MODULE

What Happened
The airbag in your vehicle is designed to deploy in a crash to protect you. But in certain models, the airbag inflator might not work properly due to a manufacturing issue that lets moisture get in.
Risk if Unfixed
If the airbag doesn't deploy correctly in a crash, it won't do its job of keeping you safe. This could lead to serious injury or even be fatal.

How to Get This Fixed

Free Fix
Your Audi dealer will replace the faulty airbag inflator with a new one that's designed to work correctly – and it'll be done at no cost to you. You should schedule the repair as soon as possible after receiving the recall notice.
