Known issues on the 2010 A6. Three recalls are on federal record for this model year, and all three trace back to the passenger frontal air bag inflator module: degraded propellant in the inflator can cause it to explode or rupture during deployment, sending metal fragments striking vehicle occupants and risking serious injury or death. Owners have filed 17 complaints for the year, and no technical service bulletins are logged.
From an air bag inflator inspection to routine V6 service work, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your specific 2010 A6.
