Airbag inflator: As it gets older, a combination of high temperatures and humidity can cause the airbag inflator propellant to degrade. If an affected vehicle is involved in a collision triggering the airbag, the metal inflator housing may explode/rupture under too much internal pressure.
Learn MoreIn 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.
Learn MoreOwners 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.
