Summary:

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.

Consequence:

The detached trim cover could pose a risk of personal injury for vehicle front seat occupants.

Remedy:

Dealers will install an improved clip on the affected vehicles. The recall began on March 7, 2008.
