Description of the problem	Safety recall 69z4 passenger occupant section system (pods) for audi a3s. I received notice of this recall from audi in august 2019 and at the time there was no repair available. I was receiving the airbag warning light and audio warning signals indicating that there was a safety system malfunction. The recall repair became available in september and i had the recall completed in late september 2019 at the dealership i purchased the car from brand new. In october of 2019 the safety warnings and audio warnings about my safety systems and my air bag light came on again. I called the audi wilisonville (oregon) to report the problem and they again attempted to fix it in november. In december, again the same warning lights and sounds came on. I again let them attempt to fix the issue in january 2020. They took 13 days and got audi usa involved to help service to fix the pods issue. In february of 2020, i again am experiencing the same issues with my airbags and safety systems and warning lights. Audi just continues to attempt to fix the car, but under oregon lemon law i only needed to allow audi wilsonville 1 chance at fixing the pods problem because and the issue can cause serious injury or death and i quote from the audi recall notice "in the event of a crash there would be an increased risk of injury to the occupant in the front passenger seat if the passenger airbag is switched off/not working." the dealership is offering to pay off the remainder of what i owe on the car, but i would still be losing over $17,000 in money i put down and have already paid in monthly payment. The warning lights come on randomly when i'm driving or stationary waiting at traffic lights. Audi wilsonville doesn't seem interested in working with me to find a resolution.
