NHTSA RECALL 19V547 -- I RECENTLY EXPERIENCED THE ISSUE WITH MY 2017 AUDI A4 IN WHICH THE PASSENGER OCCUPANT DETECTION SYSTEM HAS BECOME FAULTY. AS A RESULT OF THIS ISSUE, MY PASSENGER AIR BAG WILL SHUT OFF AS IT IS NOT DETECTING A PASSENGER IN THE VEHICLE EVEN WHEN ONE IS PRESENT. I CONTACTED MY AUDI DEALER WHO TOLD ME THEY WERE AWARE OF THIS ISSUE BUT DID NOT HAVE THE PARTS TO FIX THE PROBLEM AT THAT TIME. THIS WAS OVER A MONTH AGO AND REMAINS AN ISSUE. WITH NO OTHER FORM OF TRANSPORTATION, WE ARE FORCED TO DRIVE A CAR WITHOUT A PASSENGER AIR BAG INTERMITTENTLY. THIS IS A SERIOUS RISK TO OUR FAMILY. I BROUGHT THIS UP AGAIN TO OUR DEALER, THEY INFORMED ME THAT IF I WANTED TO TRADE THIS…

THE FRONT CRASH MITIGATION SYSTEM CALLED AUDI PRESENCE DOES NOT WORK ON MY CAR. I BOUGHT AN AUDI CERTIFIED PREOWNED VEHICLE THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO HAVE ORIGINAL WINDSHIELD TO FIND OUT 6 MONTHS AFTER I OWN CAR THAT WINDSHIELD WAS REPLACED AND PRESENCE DOES NOT WORK. THIS IS A REQUIRED SAFETY SYSTEM IN MY CAR AND WILL COST 1700 TO REPAIR. AUDI OF AMERICA REFUSES TO FIX THIS UNDER WARRANTY DESPITE THIS BEING A FAULTY SYSTEM. THEY WILL NOT EVEN RETURN MY CALLS OR EMAILS. THE PRESENCE SYSTEM STOPS THE CAR SO AN ACCIDENT DOES NOT OCCUR.
