Audi service campaign 69RH

What it saysAudi is conducting a special parts collection program involving the driver and/or front passenger seat belts from selected 2025 model year Audi vehicles. NHTSA’s full summary ↓

Audi filed this with NHTSA as a service campaign dated May 28, 2026, received Jun 4, 2026, about the seat belts — 2 documents under this number: Dealer 69RH, Circular 69RH.

A service campaign is not a safety recall — there is no NHTSA campaign number and no federal requirement — but it is usually work the manufacturer pays for on the vehicles it names; the dealer checks the VIN against the manufacturer’s list.

What the document itself lists

Parts the bulletin names

Part numberDescriptionQty
8MA-857-706-NKPZ SEAT BELT (right – pearl beige)—
8MA-857-705-MV04 SEAT BELT (left – black)—

Read by machine from the document NHTSA serves (12 pages), read Sep 30, 2026. A part number is shown only where it matches Audi’s own catalogue shape, an operation only with its code and time, and a description only where the reader got it whole; anything it could not settle is left out, and the PDF is the record. Times are the manufacturer’s warranty allowances, not a quote.

The summary is NHTSA’s abstract of the document, as filed under 49 CFR 579.5. One communication is usually filed as several documents — the bulletin, a dealer notice, an owner letter — and the number on any of them finds this page. A PDF link is shown only once NHTSA’s own server has been seen to serve that document; the rest are checked over the following nights. Quote the number at a service desk; it is what the dealer’s system is keyed on.

What owners reported

Owners of the 2 model years this bulletin names have filed 56 complaints with NHTSA since 2015.

A complaint is one owner’s account, not a defect finding, and a bulletin is not a recall. Nothing here says this bulletin was issued because of these complaints, or that the repair it describes fixed them. Complaint files on this site begin in 2015.

Common questions

Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR 579.5

Is Audi 69RH a recall?

No. A service campaign is a manufacturer communication filed with NHTSA under 49 CFR 579.5; a safety recall carries an NHTSA campaign number (two digits, a letter, six digits) and a federal duty to repair for free. Check the vehicle’s recalls by VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls, or on its page here.

Is the 69RH repair free?

A service campaign is usually paid by the manufacturer on the vehicles it names, within the terms and time limit the document sets; the dealer checks the VIN against the manufacturer’s list.

Which vehicles does 69RH cover?

The manufacturer filed it against 2 model years: 2025 Audi Q5, 2025 Audi SQ5. Whether one particular vehicle is affected is a matter of its VIN and its build, not its model year alone.
