My wife was impacted on the drivers side very hard by another vehicle, enough to total the car, and the side airbags did not deploy
Safety recall 69z4 passenger occupant section system (pods) for audi a3s. I received notice of this recall from audi in august 2019 and at the time there was no repair available. I was receiving the airbag warning light and audio warning signals indicating that there was a safety system malfunction. The recall repair became available in september and I had the recall completed in late september 2019 at the dealership I purchased the car from brand new.
