Volkswagen Group of America is recalling 1,001 Audi vehicles, including the 2023-2024 SQ8, RSQ8, Q8, Q7, and the 2024 SQ7. The driver's seat side air bag in these vehicles may have been improperly mounted to the seatback frame during manufacturing. This defect means the vehicles do not meet federal safety standards for side impact protection. Owners can take their vehicle to an Audi dealer for a free inspection and reinstallation of the air bag as needed.
If the side air bag is not mounted correctly, it may not deploy or position itself as intended during a crash. This failure increases the risk of injury to the driver during a side-impact collision because the air bag cannot provide the designed level of occupant restraint.
Free inspection and reinstallation of the driver's seat side air bag.
