2017 AUDI Q5 Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2017 Audi Q5 has 3 recalls, the most serious being a side curtain airbag inflator that can corrode from water intrusion and rupture, sending metal fragments into the cabin and injuring occupants. Water from the sunroof drainage system can soak into the foam surrounding the side head airbag inflator, leading to corrosion and a potential rupture. There is also a fuel system concern: a cracked fuel pump flange can leak gasoline, raising the risk of a fire if fuel contacts an ignition source. On the drivetrain side, a gearbox defect can allow the vehicle to roll even when the transmission is shifted into Park, creating a rollaway risk if the parking brake is not also engaged.
