Several 8Y S3s are Canadian-market cars: a passenger airbag recall must be completed in Canada before US importation, and buyers should confirm FMVSS/EPA compliance documentation. Note a quirk flagged by owners — the round speedometer dial and odometer switch between mph and km, but the digital speedometer may not — which matters for US use.
Many are Canadian imports — recall, compliance, speedo quirk
