What Happened
The fuel pump in your Audi Q8 or Q7 is the part that sends gasoline from the tank to your engine. In certain 2019-2021 models, a small component inside this pump might break, causing it to fail.
Risk if Unfixed
If the fuel pump fails while you're driving, your engine could suddenly shut off, losing power steering and power brakes. This could make it harder to control your vehicle and increase the risk of a crash.
Free Fix
Audi will replace the faulty fuel pump with a new one at no cost to you. You should schedule this free repair as soon as you receive the recall notice, which was mailed December 22, 2022.
