2012 Audi A6 Air bags Problems

“Takata recal....this was taken to dealer in 2015 for the recall and fixed. Recently the air bag warning light came on and remained on. I took it to the dealer and was told the recall was for the ocd, not the module....they found a faulty control module . The module is part of the ABS system. The ABS module and the airbag control model communicate together. I believe this should be a part of the recall on the airbag system. The module has been reset for now.....to replace.....that part costs $1456.00”

“Reference NHTSA campaign number 15v823000, my Audi A6 falls within the model year as well as the as built time line. I've just been diagnosed by my local Audi dealer that my pods unit is bad.

I believe that there are more Audi's affected within that model year as well as build time frame that could be affected by this. …”

“The passenger airbag is not turned on when a passenger sits in the seat. This means the airbag will not be deployed in the event of an accident.

As this is a significant safety hazard which could lead to severe injuries or death, and given the car's relative low mileage, I do not understand how the manufacturer does not warranty this for a longer period of time. …”

“My 2012 Audi A6 was part of safety recall 74d1. Received the recall notice and immediately scheduled, with the dealership, to bring the car in for the necessary work. The service was performed on 02/16/16. When the vehicle was returned, the passenger occupant detection system began exhibiting the problem described in the recall notice. Prior to the recall the passenger airbag system had been working properly. The dealer and and the Audi technical field manager have worked on the vehicle but cannot get it to recognize when my wife is seated in the passenger seat. …”

“Passenger occupant detection system switch went bad, disabling the airbag. $2,000+ quoted for repair. There is a recall on this model, this model year for that exact part malfunctioning but Audi says my VIN is excluded.”
