In the event that a defective airbag inflator ruptures, metal fragments may propel out through the airbag cushion towards the vehicle occupants causing serious injury or fatality.

Owners of affected vehicles should contact their local Audi dealership or Audi head office directly via https://forms.audi.com.au/locate-a-dealer?ui=audi&utm_source=audi.com.au... to arrange for a replacement airbag inflator free of charge.

Consumers who are unsure whether they are affected can also use Audi's VIN look-up tool https://www.audi.com.au/au/web/en/owners/Takata-Airbag-Safety-Recall.html or contact Audi on 1800 856 770 (Monday-Friday, 8am-6pm AEST) or contact their preferred dealer.
