The 2007 Audi Q5 has 3 recalls, the most serious being a driver's frontal airbag inflator that can explode during deployment, sending metal fragments into the cabin and potentially causing serious injury.
Two of the three recalls address fuel system concerns rooted in incomplete prior repairs. Vehicles that received an interim butyl tape fix on a cracked fuel pump flange, rather than a full flange replacement, can still develop a fuel leak. If that leaked fuel reaches an ignition source, it raises the risk of a fire.
At a glance
What can fail
Some vehicles have a cracked fuel pump flange that was previously repaired with tape only. Without replacing the flange, a fuel leak could develop and ignite, risking fire and injury.
What the fix does
Dealers will replace the fuel pump flange and reapply protective tape.
