FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:DELIVERY:FUEL PUMP

Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. (Volkswagen) is recalling certain model year 2009-2012 Audi Q5, and 2007-2012 Audi Q7 vehicles equipped with gasoline engines. The fuel pump flange on the affected vehicles may crack, allowing fuel to leak.

ON CERTAIN PASSENGER AND SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES, THE AUTOMATIC REAR LID INCLUDES AN ELECTRIC MOTOR AND CLUTCH THAT WORK IN CONJUNCTION WITH TWO GAS STRUTS TO OPEN AND CLOSE THE REAR LID, INCLUDING A MANUAL CLOSE FUNCTION. IF ONE OF THE STRUTS HAS A TOTAL LOSS OF PRESSURE, THE RESULTANT SLOW MOVEME

This issue closely resembles Audi recall campaign 97CB (NHTSA campaign ID 16V642000), with details available at [XXX] . In my case, the marker light itself is functioning properly, but the vehicle is displaying a false error message: "Front Right Side Marker Light Defective." This poses safety risks because the erroneous warning distracts drivers from the road and could lead to the system failing to alert the driver of an actual side marker light issue in the future. Many owners of the same model and year are disabling their side marker lights entirely to avoid the error, as evidenced in discussions such as those on [XXX] . Repairing this issue typically requires replacing the entire headlight assembly, with costs ranging from $2,400 to $5,300, making it prohibitively expensive for many. Although Audi initiated a recall (97CB) for a similar issue, it was limited to a specific subset of vehicles, and the widespread nature of this problem in other vehicles outside the recall’s VIN rang

Good day, I took the car for the oil change and was advised by auto repairman that there is a fuel leak underneath the rear passenger side seat and the issue has a recall by Audi. Repairman stated he was unable to fix it due to the recall and instructed me to contact Audi direct to have the issue fixed.

Good morning, As of two days ago I began smelling gas when I exited my vehicle. I paid it no mind at the time since I was parked amongst other vehicles in the parking lot and this has never happened before or at least since I owned the vehicle. I placed a card board box under the vehicle just to sense if it was my vehicle and have a sense of security that I had nothing to worry about. The next day I did notice that the box contained stains of fluid and smelled like gas. As this is my only vehicle I had to drive to work and noticed that the smell got worst. As I arrived at work I immediately did some research and found out that there was a recall on the matter, but I did not receive any information pertaining to recall etc. On my way back home I drove below the speed limit and in the slow lane just as a pre-caution. During that time the engine light came on putting my stress level even higher. As of today I have reached out to the dealership and expressed my concerns about the safety of

I have an audi 2008 q7, that has a gas leak of some kind. Local mechanic says that it could be fuel pump leak. I looked for recalls to this problem and found two for 2008 q7 gas leaks. When I contacted the local audi dealership and gave them my vin, they said no recalls on that vin. When I called Audi corporate, they said the same thing when I gave them my vin. I clearly see the recalls on line and it states all q7 gas engines. This is a fire hazard and Audi is refusing to fix my car, because my vin number isnt listed. Its obvious that its associated with this recall and Im getting no help at all from Audi. They must take care of this recall.

The contact owns a 2008 Audi Q7. The contact stated that his vehicle was included in NHTSA campaign number: 16V660000 (Fuel System, Gasoline). The contact had taken the vehicle to a local dealer where the recall repair was performed. Two years later the VIN was included in NHTSA campaign number: 18V818000 (Fuel System, Gasoline) after the initial remedy failed to correct the failure. The contact recently discovered that fuel had been leaking from the vehicle. Upon investigation, it was discovered that his vehicle was not included in the second recall. The dealer was notified of the failure and informed him that his vehicle was not included in NHTSA Campaign Number: 18V818000 (Fuel System, Gasoline). The manufacturer was notified of the failure but offered no assistance. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 146,000.

SO, I'VE CHECKED THEIR REPORTING, BUT I COULDN'T LOCATED ANY CHANGED ANY REPAIR OR CHANGED PARTS (I.E., SEAL, PACKING) FOR FUEL PUMP SYSTEM. PLEASE SEE ATTACHED. I BELIEVE THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT FOR MY HEALTH DUE TO VERY STRONG GAS LEAK. PLEASE CONSIDERATION OF MY SITUATION. THANK YOU SO MUCH.

MY PASSENGER WINDSHIELD WIPER FLEW OFF WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. IT WAS RAINING PRETTY HARD AND THE AUTOMATIC WIPERS WERE GOING PRETTY FAST WHEN SUDDENLY IT SNAPPED OFF AND FLEW BEHIND ME. THIS HAPPENED ON MAY 17, 2018. THE DEALER I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE FROM REPLACED IT WITH ANOTHER Q7'S WIPER THAT WAS ON THEIR LOT. THIS HAPPENED AGAIN ON 11/06/2018... I WAS AROUND THE SAME AREA OF THE HIGHWAY, IT WAS RAINING AND THE WIPERS WERE GOING PRETTY FAST. I WAS GOING ABOUT 50 MILES PER HOUR WHEN IT FLEW OFF AGAIN. I THINK THIS IS VERY UNSAFE AS THE WHOLE ARMS FLIES OFF WHICH IS MADE OF HEAVY METAL THAT CAN CRACK SOMEONE'S WINDSHIELD ON THE HIGHWAY OR EVEN WORSE. THERE HAS TO BE SOMETHING THAT CAN BE DONE ABOUT THIS.

HI, MY CAR WAS FOUND HAS BAD GAS SMELL BACK ON SEP 27TH, AND WE BROUGHT CAR TO MIDAS AUTO SERVICE TO CHECK IT UP. LATER THEY CALLED ME THE FUEL PUMP IS CRACKED AND FUEL IS LEAKING WHICH NEED BE FIXED ASAP TO PREVENT FIRE RISK. THEN WE ASK THEM TO DO IT. THEY FINISHED THE FIX ON SAME DAY AND WE PAID $943.38 . LATER AFTERNOON, WE PICKED THE CAR AND WENT BACK HOME. WE CHECKED ONLINE TO SEE IF THERE IS ANY RECALL FOR IT. AND FOUND IT HAS RECALL! SO, WE CALL THE AUDI RECALL SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT 1800-822-2834. THE REPRESENTATIVE ALAINA TOLD ME TO EMAIL REQUIREMENT REPAIR DOC AND PAYMENT DOC TO THEM TO START THE REIMBURSEMENT PROCESS. I EMAILED TO RIGHT WAY. AFTER THAT, WE DIDN'T HEAR FROM THEM FRO ALMOST 2 WEEKS AND WE CALLED THEM AGAIN ON OCT 13TH. THEY TOLD US THAT AUDI DECLINED OUR REQUEST AND MAILED US A LETTER ON OCT 12TH WHICH WE DIDN'T RECEIVE YET. THE PARTS HAS PROBLEM AND WE DON'T KNOW THE RECALL BEFORE THE GAS PUMP IS CRACKING. AUDI SHOULD TAKE RESPONSIBLY FOR THE REPAIRING

DRIVING ON A CAUSEWAY WHILE RAINING AND SUDDENLY PASSENGER SIDE WIPER ARM BROKE. IT MADE HUGE NOISE AND THANKS GOD IT DID NOT BREAK THE WINDSHEILD OR HIT ANYBODY BEHIND THE WHEEL. COULD HAVE BEEN WORSE. SEEN SEVERAL COMPLAINTS ON AUDIWORLD FORUM BUT NO REMEDY. I ORDERED ONE AND REPLACING ONE NOW. BUT THIS WINDSHIELD WIPER SYSTEM SHOULD HAVE BEEN RECALLED DUE TO SAFETY CONCERN.

Mileage: 130,000

WHILE DRIVING AND MAKING TURNS I WATER COMES OUT FROM UNDERNEATH THE DASHBOARD. IT COMES OUT ON BOTH THE DRIVE AND PASSENGER SIDE DEPENDING ON WHICH WAY I'M TURNING. I HAVE REPORTED THIS TO AUDI AND HAVE READ ABOUT OTHER OWNERS EXPERIENCING THE SAME THING. WHAT I HAVE FOUND OUT IS THAT IT IS A DRAIN PROBLEM. THE PIPING IS CRIMPED DUE TO THE TYPE OF MATERIAL IT IS MADE OUT OF. THIS IS VERY UNSAFE WHEN IT COMES OUT OF THE DRIVER SIDE BECAUSE NOT ONLY IS IT SHOCKING WHILE DRIVING TO HAVE WATER SPLASHED ON YOU, BUT ALSO BECAUSE THE FLOOR IS NOW WET WHERE THE BREAK AND GAS PEDALS ARE LOCATED.

Mileage: 75,000

MY CAR HAS A RECALL FOR A FUEL TANK FLANGE AND THE DEALER HAS BEEN TELLING ME SINCE DECEMBER 2016 THAT THE PARTS ARE NOT IN STOCK. I'M GETTING THE RUN-AROUND, EITHER YOUR RECALL IS BS OR THEY ARE IGNORING ME. WHICH IS IT?

TAKATA RECALL .I WAS SOLD A VEHICLE UNAWARE OF RECALL AND IT ALSO HAD A OIL LEAK. THE VEHICLE WAS LEAKING GAS.
