Recall Summary

The 2024 Audi Q3 is subject to two distinct safety recall campaigns conducted by Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. (Audi). These recalls address separate safety issues that could increase the risk of injury or a crash. The first recall (NHTSA Campaign Number 24V251000) involves a potential failure of the front passenger airbag due to a loose electrical connection in the occupant detection system. The second recall (NHTSA Campaign Number 25V082000) involves a software error that may prevent the rearview camera image from displaying, violating Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 111 for rear visibility. Both recalls are being performed free of charge.

Affected Vehicle

This record applies specifically to the 2024 model year Audi Q3. The first recall (24V251000) also affects a wide range of other 2023 and 2024 Audi models, including the A3, A4, A8, Q5, Q7, Q8, and several S and RS variants, but the 2024 Q3 is included. The second recall (25V082000) specifically covers certain 2024-2025 Audi Q3 vehicles, as well as some 2022-2024 Volkswagen Tiguan and 2023 Arteon models. Owners can verify if their specific vehicle is included in either campaign by checking their Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) on the NHTSA website or by contacting an Audi dealer.

Recalled Components

Recall 1: Front Passenger Airbag Deactivation (NHTSA

24V251000)

– Component: Air Bags: Sensor: Occupant Classification: Front Passenger.
– Issue: An electrical connection in the front passenger seat for the Occupant Detection System (ODS) control module may loosen over time. If this connection fails, the system will deactivate the front passenger airbag.
– Consequence: If the front passenger airbag is deactivated, it will not deploy in the event of a crash. This significantly increases the risk of injury to a front-seat passenger.
– Remedy: Authorized Audi dealers will replace the passenger seat occupant detection system control module. This repair is performed at no cost to the owner.

Recall 2: Rearview Camera Display Failure (NHTSA

25V082000)

– Component: Back Over Prevention: Software.
– Issue: An error may occur in the camera control unit during vehicle startup. This error can prevent the rearview camera image from displaying on the infotainment screen when the vehicle is shifted into reverse.
– Consequence: A non-functioning rearview camera reduces the driver’s ability to see obstacles, pedestrians, or other vehicles directly behind the vehicle. This increases the risk of a crash, particularly while backing up.
– Remedy: Authorized Audi dealers will update the software of the camera control unit. This update is performed at no cost to the owner.
