2 recalls across 1 model year
The Audi S4 Cabriolet has 2 recalls, both affecting the 2009 model year, where the driver and front passenger airbag inflators can explode during deployment, sending metal fragments into the cabin and causing serious injury or death.
Both recalls cover the same core hazard on opposite sides of the front seat. If either frontal airbag deploys in a crash, the inflator housing can rupture under excessive internal pressure rather than inflating the bag normally, turning the inflator itself into a source of metal shrapnel directed at the driver and front passenger.
