Vehicles Affected: Approximately 1,700 model-year 2017 Audi A5 cabriolets and S5 cabriolets
The Problem: A component within the front, rear and rear center seat belt retractor pretensioners may detach after the seat belt retractor pretensioner is deployed in a crash.

The Fix: Dealers will replace the seat belt retractors and pretensioners for free.
