The driver airbag may explode in a crash with airbag deployment. Sharp metal fragments can hit people and cause serious injury or death. Owners should schedule this recall repair immediately, even if an interim repair was recently done. I have received many letters about bringing my car in for the repairs but whenever i call audi and try schedule something they keep saying that the parts have not arrived. The issue has gone more than a year. My audi dealer is royal automotive group of san francisco. I have called many times and they told me to keep waiting. |
