1 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 03/31/2025

Vehicle: 2016 Audi Q5 2. 0 premium plus date of incident: March 31, 2025 I was in a front-end collision at approximately 20–25 mph when I struck a concrete pole. The impact was hard enough to severely damage the vehicle—the pole intruded deep into the engine bay, fluids leaked, and the front end was totaled. Despite this, none of the airbags deployed. As a result, I sustained multiple injuries: severe bruising across my chest and stomach from the seatbelt a head injury and forehead swelling from hitting the steering wheel persistent pain in my neck, chest, and abdominal area since the accident I have photo evidence of the injuries and damage, and family members who witnessed my condition via facetime shortly after the crash. I have checked both the NHTSA and Audi recall databases using my VIN, and there are no open recalls listed for this vehicle. I was never notified of any safety concerns or service requirements regarding the airbags. This is extremely concerning and I believe the airbag system may have failed in a situation where it was clearly needed. Please investigate this issue, as it poses a serious risk to driver safety.

2 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 11/09/2020

There is a leak from the panorama sunroof into rear side cabinet of the vehicle. There is already a recall #17v001000 but my vehicle is not on the list even though the issue is identical to the recall description. The leak can potential causes damage to the side rear airbag so it is a safety concern for me. However, the cause is really a defective drain hose connecting to the sunroof drain that is not securely attached or maybe defective.

3 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 06/30/2016

"takata recall" and visibility I was involved in an accident on 6/30 driving 2016 Audi Q5 taking a left hand turn. Before making the turn I ensured no one was coming from the opposite direction as I had a solid green light. When I was half way through the intersection then suddenly a car from no where came and hit my car on the front passenger side in a speed of at least 45 mph. My car was dragged for several meters and finally stopped on the sidewalk and the front part is completely damaged. I was surprised to see that the airbags didn't deploy even though my front lights and hood are totally damaged.

4 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 03/15/2010

Takata recall: this is a supplement to complaint no. 10939120 I should have mentioned that the vehicle was purchased and operated in florida from approximately 3/15/2010 until approximately 8/15/2012. It was, therefore exposed to type a heat and humidity driving conditions and should be classified as such even though the vehicle is now operated in the state of washington. Damage to the propellant while the vehicle was operated in florida cannot be ruled out.
