Machine translation. This page was translated automatically from the English record we hold of the issuing authority’s notice. The English original is shown below and the authority’s own notice is linked above — both take precedence over this translation.
Product Name (original English): A5, A6 E-TRON, Q4 E-TRON
Risk Description (original English): The torsion bar is defective and may easily break, leading the belt strap to unwind uncontrollably in the event of an accident. The protective effect of the seat belt would therefore no longer be assured which can lead to injury.
