2021 model year Audi vehicles. Our records show that you are the owner of a vehicle affected
by this action.
What is the issue? The score line for the passenger airbag (the area for the airbag to open
through the composite instrument panel cover) may not have been
completed according to specification. In a crash with passenger airbag
activation, if the score line is not correct it may impact how the airbag
opens and inflates, and may also cause plastic parts to detach and
enter the passenger compartment. This may lead to an increased risk of
injury in a crash.
What will we do? To correct this defect, your authorized Audi dealer will inspect and, if
necessary, rework the passenger airbag score-line in the instrument
panel. This work will take about an hour to complete and will be
performed for you free of charge. 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 Audi dealer without delay to schedule
this recall repair. For your convenience, you can also visit
www.audiusa.com and click on the “Find a Dealer” link to locate a
dealer near you and schedule this service.

Este aviso se aplica a su vehículo: <LÍNEA>,
Administración Nacional de Seguridad del Tráfico en las Carreteras (NHTSA): 21V159
Asunto: Llamado a revisión por seguridad 70i2 – Bolsa de aire del pasajero – Línea marcada
Estimado propietario de un Audi:
Le enviamos este aviso de conformidad con la Ley Nacional de Seguridad del Tráfico y Vehículos
Motorizados. Audi determinó que hay un defecto relacionado con la seguridad de los vehículos
motorizados en ciertos vehículos Audi modelo 2019-2021. Nuestros registros muestran que usted
es propietario de un vehículo afectado por esta acción.
¿Cuál es el
problema?
Es posible que la línea marcada de la bolsa de aire del pasajero (el área
por la que la bolsa de aire se abrirá a través de la cubierta del panel de
instrumentos compuesto) no se haya completado de acuerdo con las
especificaciones. En un choque con activación de la bolsa de aire del
pasajero, si la línea marcada no está bien, puede afectar la forma en que
la bolsa de aire se abre y se infla, y también puede hacer que se
desprendan pedazos de plástico y entren en el compartimiento del
pasajero. Esto puede llevar a un mayor riesgo de lesiones en un choque.
¿Qué vamos a
hacer?
Para corregir este defecto, su concesionaria autorizada Audi
inspeccionará y, en caso necesario, volverá a marcar la línea de la bolsa
de aire del pasajero en el panel de instrumentos. Este trabajo tomará
aproximadamente una hora y se realizará de forma gratuita. Tenga en
cuenta que su concesionaria puede necesitar más tiempo para preparar
la reparación, así como para adaptar el cronograma diario del taller.
¿Qué debe hacer
usted?
Comuníquese de inmediato con su concesionaria autorizada Audi para
programar esta reparación por llamado a revisión. Para su comodidad,
también puede visitar www.audiusa.com y hacer clic en el enlace “Buscar
una concesionaria” para ubicar una concesionaria cerca de usted y
