Safety recall notices and repair campaigns registered for the 2011 Audi Q7 in Canada.
On certain vehicles equipped with 21" wheels, the compliance label lists a gross axle weight rating (GAWR) for the rear axle that's too high. The label should list the rear axle capacity as 1770 kg (3902 lb.). This could lead you to overload the vehicle.
Overloading the vehicle could increase the risk of a crash.
Audi will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealership to install a label with the correct rear axle GAWR.
Certain vehicles with a cracked (but not leaking) fuel pump flange were repaired with butyl tape only under a previous recall (please see Transport Canada Recall 2016-443 / Audi campaign 20W9). This is because replacement fuel pump flanges were not available at the time of repair (the butyl tape was used an interim repair). If the fuel pump flange is not replaced, a fuel leak could still occur. A fuel leak, in the presence of an ignition source, could lead to a fire causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace fuel pump flange and reapply the protective butyl tape.
A failure of this component (fuel system) may increase the risk of a crash or injury.
Authorized dealerships will inspect the vehicle and complete all necessary repairs free of charge (parts and labor).
On certain vehicles, the fuel pump flange may develop fine cracks or fissures, which could result in a fuel leak. Leaking fuel, in the presence of an ignition source, could lead to a fire causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will apply a butyl protective film to the fuel pump flange. If cracks are present, the fuel pump flange will be replaced.
