Audi S3

Issue: 
On certain vehicles, the owner's manual incorrectly describes the function of the passenger airbag indicator light. 

Safety Risk: 
This error does not affect the safety or function of the airbag.

Corrective Actions: 
This is not a recall. The company has made changes to ensure that all new vehicles have owner manuals that correctly describe the function of the passenger airbag indicator light. The company will also instruct dealers to add an insert to correct owner's manuals for all unsold vehicles.

Issue: 
On certain vehicles, the compliance label, located on the B-pillar, doesn't list the vehicle weight ratings. As a result, you could overload the vehicle. 

Safety Risk: 
Overloading the vehicle could increase the risk of a crash. 

Corrective Actions:  
Audi will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to install an overlay (label) on the compliance label with the correct weight ratings.

Issue: 
On certain vehicles, after shifting into reverse or manually activating the parking function, the rearview camera image may not display. Canadian regulations require the rearview image to display when the transmission is shifted into reverse. 

Safety Risk: 
A rearview camera image that does not display could reduce a driver's ability to see behind the vehicle while backing up. This could increase the risk of a crash. 

Corrective Actions: 
The company will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the rearview camera.

Issue: 
On certain vehicles, the infotainment main unit in the center console could fail. If this happens, the display screen will not turn on when you start the vehicle and the rearview camera image will not appear when backing up. Canadian regulations require the rearview image to display when the transmission is shifted into reverse. 

Safety Risk: 
A rearview camera image that does not display could reduce a driver's ability to see behind the vehicle while backing up. This could increase the risk of a crash. 

Corrective Actions: 
Audi will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the infotainment unit.

Issue: 
On certain vehicles, the passenger-front airbag may not have been folded properly. As a result, the airbag may not inflate properly in a crash. 

Safety Risk: 
An airbag that does not inflate properly could create an increased risk of injury in a crash. 

Corrective Actions: 
Audi will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to replace the passenger-front airbag module.
