Audi recall

Over 3,500  Audi cars manufactured between 2005 and 2011  are being recalled in the UAE over safety fears regarding potentially explosive airbags.

The Ministry of Economy’s Consumer Protection Department  ordered the recall of  Audi A4, A4 Cabriolet and A6 models because The airbags were found to be at risk of exploding when deployed after long-term exposure to high heat and humidity.

“This could cause small metal parts to become dislodged from the housing and potentially injure a vehicle occupant,” according to the safety recall notice.
