## What the record says

- **Product**: AUDI Q4 E-TRON (2022) - Recall 23V189000
- **Reason**: Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. (Audi) is recalling certain 2022-2023 Q4 E-Tron SUV and Q4 E-Tron Sportback vehicles. During deployment, the head curtain air bag could deform the door seal and expose the metal inlay within the seal, which could tear the air bag. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 226, "Ejection Mitigation." In the event of a crash, a torn air bag cannot protect occupants as intended, increasing the risk of injury.
- **Classification**: Not supplied
- **Recalling firm**: Volkswagen Group of America, Inc.
