August 5, 2021 NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 21V606000
Seat Belt Locking Retractor Malfunction/FMVSS 208
An unsecured child restraint system can increase the risk of injury during a crash.
NHTSA Campaign Number: 21V606
Manufacturer Volkswagen Group of America, Inc.
Components SEAT BELTS
Potential Number of Units Affected 45,496
Summary
Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. (Volkswagen) is recalling certain 2021 Volkswagen ID4, Audi A4 Allroad, A4 Sedan, A5 Cabriolet, A5 Coupe, A5 Sportback, A6 Allroad, A6 Sedan, A7, A8, E-Tron Quattro, E-Tron Sportback Quattro, Q3, Q5, Q5 Sportback, Q7, Q8, RS5 Sportback, RS5 Coupe, RS6 Avant, RS7, RSQ8, S4 Sedan, S5 Cabriolet, S5 Coupe, S5 Sportback, S6 Sedan, S7, S8, SQ5, SQ5 Sportback, SQ7, SQ8, and 2021-2022 S3 Sedan vehicles. The rear seat belt automatic locking retractors may deactivate early, which can prevent the child restraint system from securing properly. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 208, “Occupant Crash Protection.”
Remedy
Dealers will inspect, and replace as necessary, the middle-rear seat belt assemblies, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed August 27, 2021. Owners may contact Volkswagen customer service at 1-800-893-5298 and Audi customer service at 1-800-253-2834. Volkswagen’s numbers for this recall are 69CR (VW) and 69CS (Audi).
Notes
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
Check if your Volkswagen has a Recall
Problem Description
Autoliv has determined that certain seat belt assemblies do not comply with regulatory requirements. In these certain seat belt assemblies, the automatic locking retractor (ALR) function may deactivate early before the webbing is fully retracted.
The ALR function is required by regulatory requirement. This noncompliance does not impact the compliance or functionality of the seat belt assemblies with respect to their normal use by adult passengers or use of the LATCH system to secure child restraint seats.
With child restraint seats for which the vehicle owner elects to use the seat belt to secure the child restraint seat instead of the LATCH system, if the seat belt is not lockable so that the seat belt assembly can be used to tightly secure the child restraint seat, there is an increased risk of injury in a crash to the occupant of the child restraint seat.
Corrective Action
Inspect and, if necessary, replace the affected seat belt(s).
Precautions
A vehicle owner who elects to use the seat belt instead of the LATCH system to secure a child restraint seat will notice that the seat belt is not locked and the audible clicking noise made when the ALR function is activated stops well before the seat belt webbing is fully retracted.
Owner Notification
Owner notification will take place in August 2021. Owner letter examples are included in this bulletin for your reference.

August, 2021 69CR Page 5 of 13 Customer Letter Example This notice applies to your vehicle: , NHTSA: 21V606 Subject: Compliance Recall 69CR – Automatic Locking Seat Belt Retractors (ALR) Dear Volkswagen Owner, This notice is sent to you in accordance with the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act. Volkswagen has decided that certain 2021 model year Volkswagen vehicles fail to conform to Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 208 Occupant Crash Protection. Our records show that you are the owner of a vehicle affected by this action. What is the issue? Autoliv has determined that certain seat belt assemblies do not comply with regulatory requirements. In these certain seat belt assemblies, the automatic locking retractor (ALR) function may deactivate early before the webbing is fully retracted. The ALR function is required by regulatory requirement. This noncompliance does not impact the compliance or functionality of the seat belt assemblies with respect to their normal use by adult passengers or use of the LATCH system to secure child restraint seats. With child restraint seats for which the vehicle owner elects to use the seat belt to secure the child restraint seat instead of the LATCH system, if the seat belt is not lockable so that the seat belt assembly can be used to tightly secure the child restraint seat, there is an increased risk of injury in a crash to the occupant of the child restraint seat. What will we do? To correct this noncompliance, your authorized Volkswagen dealer will inspect and, if necessary, replace the affected seat belt(s). This work will take about an hour to complete and will be performed for you free of charge. If a seat belt requires replacement, your dealer will have to order parts. Please keep in mind that your dealer may need additional time for the preparation of the repair, as well as to accommodate their daily workshop schedule. What should you do? Please contact your authorized Volkswagen dealer without delay to schedule this recall repair. To set up an appointment online, please visit www.vw.com/find-a-dealer. Precautions you should take A vehicle owner who elects to use the seat belt instead of the LATCH system to secure a child restraint seat will notice that the seat belt is not locked and the audible clicking noise made when the ALR function is activated stops well before the seat belt webbing is fully retracted.

Volkswagen has decided that certain 2021 model year Volkswagen vehicles fail to conform to Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 208 Occupant Crash Protection. Our records show that you are the owner of a vehicle affected by this action. What is the issue? Autoliv seat belt assemblies do not comply with regulatory requirements. In these certain seat belt assemblies, the automatic locking retractor (ALR) function may deactivate early before the webbing is fully retracted. The ALR function is required by regulatory requirement. This noncompliance does not impact the compliance or functionality of the seat belt assemblies with respect to their normal use by adult passengers or use of the LATCH system to secure child restraint seats. With child restraint seats for which the vehicle owner elects to use the seat belt to secure the child restraint seat instead of the LATCH system, if the seat belt is not lockable so that the seat belt assembly can be used to tightly secure the child restraint seat, there is an increased risk of injury in a crash to the occupant of the child restraint seat. What will we do? To correct this noncompliance, your authorized Volkswagen dealer will inspect and, if necessary, replace the affected seat belt(s). This work will take about an hour to complete and will be performed for you free of charge. If a seat belt requires replacement, your dealer will have to order parts. Please keep in mind that your dealer may need additional time for the preparation of the repair, as well as to accommodate their daily workshop schedule. What should you do? Please contact your authorized Volkswagen dealer without delay to schedule this recall repair. To set up an appointment online, please visit www.vw.com/find-a-dealer. Precautions you should take A vehicle owner who elects to use the seat belt instead of the LATCH system to secure a child restraint seat will notice that the seat belt is not locked and the audible clicking noise made when the ALR function is activated stops well before the seat belt webbing is fully retracted. Form No. F_3.4_AHQ-GQO-CP-C_060 Rev.3.0 69CR USA IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL Lease vehicles and address changes If you are the lessor and registered owner of the vehicle identified in this action, the law requires you to forward this letter immediately via first-class mail to the lessee within ten (10) days of receipt.

Sincerely, Volkswagen Customer Protection Formulario número F_3.4_AHQ-GQO-CP-C_060 Rev.3.0 69CR USA IMPORTANTE LLAMADO A REVISIÓN POR SEGURIDAD Volkswagen of America, Inc. 3800 Hamlin Road Auburn Hills, MI 48326 <DIRECCIÓN DEL CLIENTE> <CIUDAD, ESTADO Y CÓDIGO POSTAL DEL CLIENTE> Este aviso se aplica a su vehículo: <LÍNEA>, Administración Nacional de Seguridad del Tráfico en las Carreteras (NHTSA): 21V606 Asunto: Llamado a revisión por cumplimiento 69CR – Retractores del cinturón de seguridad con bloqueo automático (ALR) Estimado propietario de un Volkswagen: Le enviamos este aviso de conformidad con la Ley Nacional de Seguridad del Tráfico y Vehículos Motorizados. Volkswagen decidió que algunos vehículos Volkswagen modelo 2021 no cumplen con la Norma federal de seguridad de los vehículos de motor (FMVSS) número 208, Protección contra choques para los pasajeros. Nuestros registros muestran que usted es propietario de un vehículo afectado por esta acción. ¿Cuál es el problema? Los ensamblajes de los cinturones de seguridad de Autoliv no cumplen con los requisitos reglamentarios. En esos ensamblajes de los cinturones de seguridad, la función del retractor con bloqueo automático (ALR) puede desactivarse antes de que la cincha esté completamente retraída. La función de ALR es obligatoria de conformidad con los reglamentos. Este incumplimiento no afecta el cumplimiento o la funcionalidad de los conjuntos de cinturones de seguridad con respecto a su uso normal por parte de pasajeros adultos o el uso del sistema LATCH para asegurar los asientos de seguridad para niños. Con los asientos de seguridad para niños con los cuales el propietario del vehículo decide usar el cinturón de seguridad en lugar del sistema LATCH para asegurar el asiento de seguridad para niños, si el cinturón de seguridad no se puede bloquear para que el ensamblaje del cinturón de seguridad se pueda usar para asegurar firmemente el asiento de seguridad para niños, existe un mayor riesgo de lesiones en un choque para el pasajero que va en el asiento de seguridad para niños. ¿Qué vamos a hacer? Para corregir este incumplimiento, su concesionaria autorizada Volkswagen inspeccionará y, en caso necesario, remplazará los dos cinturones de seguridad afectados. Este trabajo tomará aproximadamente una hora y se realizará de forma gratuita. Si es necesario reemplazar un cinturón de seguridad, su concesionaria tendrá que pedir piezas. Tenga en cuenta que su concesionaria puede necesitar más tiempo para preparar la reparación, así como para adaptar el cronograma diario del taller. Formulario número F_3.4_AHQ-GQO-CP-C_060 Rev.3.0 69CR USA IMPORTANTE LLAMADO A REVISIÓN POR SEGURIDAD ¿Qué debe hacer usted? Comuníquese de inmediato con su concesionaria autorizada Volkswagen para programar esta reparación por llamado a revisión. Para programar una cita en línea, visite www.vw.com/find-a-dealer. ¿Qué precauciones debe tomar? El propietario de un vehículo que decide usar el cinturón de seguridad en lugar del sistema LATCH para asegurar un asiento de seguridad para niños notará que el cinturón de seguridad no está bloqueado y el ruido de clic audible que se produce cuando se activa la función ALR se detiene mucho antes de que la cincha del cinturón de seguridad esté completamente retraída. Vehículos en arrendamiento y cambios de dirección Si usted es el arrendador y propietario registrado del vehículo que se identifica en esta acción, la ley requiere que le reenvíe esta carta inmediatamente por first-class mail al arrendatario en un plazo de diez (10) días a partir de que la reciba. Si cambió de dirección o vendió el vehículo, llene la tarjeta prepagada de respuesta del propietario que se adjunta a esta carta y envíenosla por correo para poder actualizar nuestros registros. ¿Hay algo más en lo que le podamos ayudar? Si su concesionaria autorizada Volkswagen no logra o no puede completar este trabajo de forma gratuita en un plazo razonable, o si usted tiene alguna pregunta acerca de este comunicado, comuníquese con nosotros por el medio de comunicación de su preferencia en www.vw.com/contact o llamándonos al 800- 893-5298. Verificar si hay alguna campaña de servicio y llamado a revisión vigente relacionada con su vehículo Para verificar la elegibilidad de su vehículo para reparación de conformidad con esta o cualquier otra campaña de servicio o llamado a revisión, visite www.vw.com/owners/recalls e ingrese su Número de identificación del vehículo (VIN) en la herramienta de búsqueda de campañas de servicio o llamado a revisión. Si aún no queda satisfecho, puede presentar una queja ante: The Administrator, National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, 1200 New Jersey Avenue, SE., Washington, DC 20590; o puede llamar a la línea directa sin costo sobre seguridad de los vehículos al 1-888-327-4236 (TTY: 1-800-424-9153); o puede visitar la página https://www.safercar.gov. Lamentamos cualquier inconveniente que este asunto le pueda ocasionar; sin embargo, tomamos esta medida para ayudar a garantizar su seguridad y satisfacción continua con el vehículo. Atentamente, Protección al cliente de Volkswagen
