Volkswagen has issued a recall for 6,054 Audi Q5 vehicles from the 2009 model year, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

The recall affects vehicles manufactured between Nov. 25, 2008, and June 4, 2009. The vehicles may have an incorrectly manufactured left and/or right A-pillar trim cover clip. In these cases, the A-pillar trim could become loose when the sideguard head protection airbags deploy during an accident.

If this were to happen, a stray trim piece could injure one of the front-seat occupants.

Dealers will inspect the clip in the middle of the left and right A-pillar covers and replace it for free if it does turn out to be faulty. Owners can contact Audi at 800-253-2834 or the NHTSA vehicle safety hotline at 888-327-4236.
