2014 AUDI A5 Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2014 Audi A5 has 3 recalls, all involving fire risk: corroded wiring in the auxiliary heater circuit can overheat and melt, and the electric coolant pump on 2.0L turbocharged models can become blocked or short-circuit and overheat.

Both coolant pump issues share the same consequence: a pump that stops moving coolant through the system can generate enough heat to start a fire in the engine bay. The auxiliary heater wiring concern is separate, where corrosion inside the electrical connector allows heat to build in the wires themselves, also raising the risk of fire.
