## What is wrong

Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. \(Volkswagen\) is recalling certain model year 2013\-2014 Audi A8 and S8 vehicles equipped with a standard sunroof, manufactured March 12, 2013, through July 15, 2013.  These vehicles are equipped with a standard sunroof glass panel that may shatter.


## What can happen

Should the sunroof's glass break while the vehicle is in use, the falling glass could injure the driver or passengers.  It could also distract the driver, increasing the risk of a crash.


## The remedy

Volkswagen will notify owners, and dealers will replace the sunroof glass panel, free of charge.  The recall began on October 21, 2013.  Owners may contact Audi of America at 1\-800\-822\-2834.  Volkwagen's number for this campaign is 60B6/1L.
