• Recall 2018059 [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 driver 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 driver 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: for the audi a4, s4, a5 and s5 models, this campaign only affects the cabriolet versions of these models. Also to note: this recall supersedes the audi brand vehicles subject to recall 2016-064 (audi recall 69n1) and 2016-065 (69n2). Audi brand vehicles completed under the previous 2016-064 and 2016-065 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.

• Recall 2016064 [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 campaign only affects the audi a5 and audi s5 cabriolet models.

Unable to get parts for faulty mse transmission currently in my 2011. Audi upgraded because of known problems to nsy model transmission and expects owner to pay expense. They did not and have not make the customer/consumer aware of this until you forced to take it in for service due to sensors and limited functionality in driving capabilities. Vehicle hesitates and drops gears while in motion. This occurred on a major highway creating a hazardous event, in addition they will also charge you for a diagnosis and bogus service while they are already aware that the parts are not available for that transmission. Upon research i have found this is not an isolated problem, or due to driving, mileage, wear and tear, previous owner, lack of warranty or whatever else they want to come up with. *tr

While inspecting my 2011 s5 after purchase i noticed that the rear window was detaching from the top. The dealer repaired as a warranty repair. A few years later the top of the convertible roof on the inside started to sag. I can't prove the dealer was at fault but they were the last to work on the convertible roof. The repair is not worth the remaining value of the vehicle and the dealer will not insure the repair more than a year. So be careful with these parts and now most of you know these vehicles have takata airbags subject to a recall which audi has not provide a time table for resolution.

Takata recall - i have been notified by audi that the airbag in my car needs to be replaced but they have offered no timetable as to when this may be possible. No solution is currently available. I find it disconcerting to be driving a car that has an airbag that could cause significant injury.

I recently purchased a used audi s5 cabriolet. After researching the vehicle and noting several posts about the rear window detaching from the top and having a friend who just had his a5 repaired this was something i was looking for. In my inspection of the vehicle i did confirm that the top had already pulled away at the bottom of the window. I pointed this out to the salesman and the dealer agreed to fix it at no cost. While i'm getting this fixed, this is to document that this is a well known issue that audi should address. This car is in immaculate condition except for the one issue.

In 2014 i noticed that the carbon fiber insert on the passenger side was peeling off. The dealer replaced it but then told me they repaired it by accident because it should not have been covered. A few months later the carbon fiber inserts in the back seats started to peel off. Audi could not explain it. I had to tear them off because they were scratching my children when they sat in the back seat. I personally replace the inserts and noticed that the insert around the mmi was also starting to peel. Someone said that uv rays and high heat could cause this to happen. I am not happy with the quality of this product.
