A6

  • 12,938 miles
My 2008 Audi A6 avant has had an air bag warning light appear 3 times in 2 years. Each time it gives error codes for it's center, rear seat belt. I was told that this means that the restraint may not work effectively in the event of a crash or abrupt stop. It has happened at 12,983 miles, at 29,000 miles and now at 39,000 miles. Nobody should use it until it is fixed. 1st time Audi did gff test steps and cleared code, second time they replaced the seat belt itself. Now they believe it to be an electrical system issue.
