Airbags Vehicle recall #97V172000 · 1997 · 54,800 vehicles

What's wrong: Some air bag sensors do not comply with Audi's durability standards over the lifetime of the vehicle.

Why it matters: In the event the sensor should malfunction, the air bag restraint system can inadvertently deploy. Deployment of the air bag restraint system without warning could cause a driver to lose vehicle control.

The fix: Dealers will replace the air bag sensor control module.
