The 2014 Audi RS 7 has 2 recalls, the most serious involving the turbocharger oil supply strainer, which can become blocked and starve the bearings of lubrication, causing the turbine shaft to break or seize and potentially stalling the engine while driving.
The second recall affects vehicles equipped with basic front passenger seats. A sensing mat inside the seat can wear or develop stress over time, causing the passenger occupant detection system to malfunction. If that happens, the front passenger airbag may not deploy correctly in a crash, raising the risk of injury to that occupant.
