2016 AUDI A3 Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2016 Audi A3 has 3 recalls, the most serious being a front passenger airbag inflator that can explode during deployment and send metal fragments into the cabin, posing a risk of serious injury or death.

A separate fuel system recall affects front-wheel drive models: a fuel leak can develop and, near an ignition source, raise the risk of a fire. There is also a concern with the passenger seat occupancy sensor, which can malfunction and shut off the front passenger airbag even when someone is sitting there, leaving that occupant without airbag protection in a crash.
