Airbag recall...

[Schaible, David]

The airbag recall was a long time ago, if you are not the original owner
and do not know if the recall was done you used to be able to call AoA
or a dealer and they could look up your vin # and tell you if the recall
was done.  2 months after they "serviced" my airbag for the recall the
light came on and stayed on, when I questioned them they said obviously
it was not related.  Many other people had similar experiences after the
recall. Good luck.

I, too, am having issues with my airbag light.  

what is this mysterious recall to which you refer?

Mark,
A well-known issue (I guess not so well-known as I thought) and 
dozens of postings about it during the past few years. It's a common 
problem on these cars _after_ having the airbag recall done. One 
downside of this long light is "merely" that the airbag is 
inoperative during that period of time; the other downside is that 
passengers are always asking you about it. The problem can be 
eliminated--at least temporarily--by resetting the airbag controller 
with a VAG-COM tool.
