• Recall 2018342 [Canada]: Airbag
  On certain vehicles, long-term exposure to high absolute humidity and temperature, combined with high temperature cycling, could eventually degrade the propellant contained in the passenger frontal airbag. This could cause the airbag to deploy with more force than normal. As a result, if the vehicle were involved in a collision that warrants airbag deployment, fragments could be propelled toward vehicle occupants, and the airbag assembly could be damaged, preventing proper function. These issues could increase the risk of injury. Correction: dealers will replace the passenger frontal airbag inflator. Note: canadian climate results in the propellant degrading slowly. The recall is being conducted as a precaution to address future risk, and is expected to replace airbag inflators before their function would be affected. Additional note: this recall supersedes recalls 2016-266 (audi recall 69o2), 2017-026 (audi recall 69p6) and 2018-022 (audi recall 69u1). Vehicles completed under the previous recalls require repair under this recall, as the previous recall remedy was an interim repair. Interim repair parts must be replaced with final repair parts. Additional note: for the 2009 model year a4 and s4 models, only the cabriolet versions are involved in this campaign.

• Recall 2016065 [Canada]: Airbag
  On certain vehicles, the driver frontal airbag inflator could produce excessive internal pressure during airbag deployment. Increased pressure may cause the inflator to rupture, which could allow fragments to be propelled toward vehicle occupants, increasing the risk of injury. This could also damage the airbag module, which could prevent proper deployment. Failure of the airbag to fully deploy during a crash (where deployment is warranted) could increase the risk of personal injury to the seat occupant. Correction: dealers will replace the front driver airbag inflator. Note: this only affects the cabriolet versions of the audi a4 and s4 models.

I had just put $35 in gassed the car still said i needed gas and that i had zero miles left of gas i made a trip that was about 45 miles in distance. My car was then parked and turned off for about 3 to 4 hours then it had trouble starting at first but turned on and i proceeded onto the freeway which was across the street from the parking lot i parked inside of. It was about 9:00 pm and thankfully there was not a lot of cars out. The entrance of this freeway consist of one medium sized steep hill which remains traveling upward onto a mountain when my car suddenly shut off my 3 year old daughter and i were in the car and thankfully we were on the last lane due to the fact that we were barely entering the freeway. I parked on the right side skirt i had just replaced that battery earlier that week (no more than 5 day before). I had a small gas can in my trunk and had someone go to the gas station and bring me the gallon of gas which i emptied into my car and it turned on. At times the car does smell like gasoline especially if i just put gas. It doesn't matter how much gas i fill up my tank with it will indicate i have 0 miles of gas in the screen and the fuel gauge will not go below the middle indicator and will never show above 3/4 full. My tpmsa is always indicating a problem when the i have a mechanic see it and he assured me it's in good condition

I have called my dealership and reached out to the vehicle manufacturer on their website numerous times over a 10 year period (at the very least since audi announced agreed to the repairs). I keep on receiving notice postcards from audi to have this scheduled with my local dealership. When i call they keep telling me to be patient, they will call me when one comes in. I have started to receive postcards from another dealer to schedule the repair...Only this dealer is across the country in california! It does not seem to me when i contact audi of america they don't really care. I only have approximately 70,000 miles on the car because i don't drive it with my family aboard(because of the factory installed takata front passenger anti personnel device). The only help from audi was in the from of a recommendation "do not" use front passenger seat. To recap 12 year old vehicle, i believe i live in zone2, numerous attempts to both audi of america and my local dealership, recall notices from california! *****update: as i was about to file this complaint i decided to call benzel busch audi to check. And miraculously they have one. I was told by audi of america through customer service representative greg m. On may 16, 2019, that he spoke to katherine at service and that they are awaiting parts and that she assured him that i was a priority and once the part arrives they will be reaching out to me directly. In the almost a year of waiting, no one has contacted me, not aoa or local dealer. I called her today jan. 8, 2020 and scheduled a repair on jan.13. It would seem that i am not a priority.

Left dipped headlight flickers , dies out. While in motion or stationary , the left dipped headlight will flicker repeatedly and die out. Turning the headlights off and back on fixes the issue for a very short period of time before the flickering starts up again and every 5 minutes the left dipped headlight goes out again. This issue is very concerning for not only safety reasons , but for legal reasons as well given that i have to turn the headlights off and on every 5 minutes to avoid breaking the law by driving with a headlight out at night. This origin of this issue is unknown , but it seems to be very common and it warrants a recall considering how many people have this issue with the 2008 line of audi a4 vehicles points to a mass manufacturing defect. It is not only dangerous it is illegal! This widespread issue demands a recall!
