FEBRUARY 2008 --
Volkswagen is recalling 720 MY 2008 Audi TT
coupe vehicles. These vehicles were produced
with C-pillar trim cover clips that do not
provide adequate retention. In the event of
a deployment of the rear pyrotechnic safety
belt, the C-pillar trim cover may become
detached from the sheet metal due to low
retention force of the trim clip. The
detached trim cover could pose a risk of
personal injury for vehicle front seat
occupants. Dealers will install an improved
clip on the affected vehicles. The recall is
expected to begin during March 2008. Owners
may contact VW/Audi at 1-800-822-2834.
