Recall Summary
The 2024 Audi SQ8 is subject to two distinct safety recall campaigns conducted by Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. (Audi). These recalls address separate safety defects that may increase the risk of injury or crash. The first recall (NHTSA Campaign Number 23V868000) involves a potential failure of the driver’s seat side air bag to deploy correctly due to improper mounting. The second recall (NHTSA Campaign Number 25V900000) involves a software error that may prevent the rearview camera image from displaying as required. Both recalls are being conducted free of charge to owners.
Affected Vehicle
The recalls apply specifically to the 2024 model year Audi SQ8. The first recall (23V868000) also affects certain 2023–2024 SQ8, RSQ8, Q8, Q7, and 2024 SQ7 vehicles. The second recall (25V900000) covers a broader range of 2019–2026 Audi vehicles, including the 2024 SQ8. Owners should verify whether their specific vehicle is included by checking their Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) on the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) website or by contacting an authorized Audi dealer. For the rearview camera recall, VINs became searchable on NHTSA.gov as of December 23, 2025.
Recalled Components
1. Air Bags: Side/Window (Recall 23V868000)
– Component: Driver’s seat side air bag.
– Defect: The driver’s seat side air bag may have been improperly mounted to the seatback frame during assembly. This condition causes the vehicle to fail compliance with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 214, “Side Impact Protection.”
– Consequence: An improperly mounted air bag may not restrain an occupant as intended during a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
– Remedy: Authorized Audi dealers will inspect the driver’s seat side air bag mounting and reinstall it correctly if necessary. This service is provided at no cost to the owner. Owner notification letters for this recall were mailed on January 17, 2024. Audi’s internal reference number for this campaign is 69GA.
2. Back Over Prevention: Sensing System – Camera (Recall 25V900000)
– Component: Rearview camera system.
– Defect: A software error may prevent the rearview camera image from displaying as intended when the vehicle is placed in reverse. This condition causes the vehicle to fail compliance with FMVSS No. 111, “Rear Visibility.”
– Consequence: A rearview image that does not display reduces the driver’s view behind the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash, particularly when backing up.
– Remedy: Authorized Audi dealers will update the vehicle’s software to correct the error. This service is provided at no cost to the owner. Owner notification letters for this recall were mailed on January 14, 2026. Audi’s internal reference number for this campaign is 90TV.
What Owners Should Do
Owners of a 2024 Audi SQ8 should take the following steps:
1. Verify Recall Status: Check whether your vehicle is affected by either or both recalls. You can do this by visiting the NHTSA website (www.nhtsa.gov) and entering your 17-character Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). Alternatively, you may contact Audi customer service directly.
2. Contact Audi Customer Service: For questions or to schedule a free repair, call Audi customer service at 1-800-253-2834. Reference recall numbers 69GA (air bag) and 90TV (rearview camera) when speaking with a representative.
3. Schedule Repairs Promptly: Both recalls involve safety-critical systems. Owners should contact their local authorized Audi dealer as soon as possible to schedule an inspection and repair. The air bag inspection and software update are both performed free of charge.
4. Do Not Delay Repairs: While neither recall requires the vehicle to be parked immediately or outdoors (both recalls are marked “parkIt: false” and “parkOutSide: false”), the defects present real safety risks. An improperly mounted air bag may fail to protect you in a side-impact crash, and a non-functioning rearview camera increases the risk of backing into an obstacle, pedestrian, or another vehicle.
5. Additional Assistance: If you have difficulty obtaining a free repair or have further questions, you may contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY
