Issue

Issue:
On certain vehicles, a problem with the instrument panel cover may cause the passenger-front airbag not to inflate properly in a crash. This could also cause plastic pieces to be propelled toward vehicle occupants when the airbag inflates.

Safety Risk:
The passenger-front airbag may not open and inflate properly in a crash, and plastic pieces could be propelled towards the vehicle occupants. This could create an increased risk of injury in a crash.

Corrective Actions:
Audi will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to inspect the passenger-front airbag score line in the instrument panel and repair it, if necessary.
