Due to a manufacturing issue, the NADI inflators may absorb moisture, possibly causing the airbag to deploy improperly in a crash.
As a result, the airbag may not properly protect the occupant, increasing the risk of serious injury or death.
What to do
VW will notify owners, and dealers will replace the driver front airbag inflator with an alternative inflator when the parts become available free of charge.
Owner notifications are expected to begin March 27, 2020.
Owners may contact Audi customer service at (800) 253-2834. Volkswagen's number for this recall is 69AE.
