Consumer Description
2017 AUdi Q7 shares the same rear coil springs with the Volkwagen Atlas. There has already been a recall for the Atlas (18V-904), but none for the same issue with the Audi Q7. Volkswagen Atlas vehicles included in this recall may been manufactured with rear coil springs of certain production batches using a material that does not meet specifications as well as rear coil springs from production batches made with Vanadium material from one subsupplier with incorrect process parameters. The potentially affected vehicles were identified by tracking suspected parts batches using this material. The affected VINs are not sequential since some batches were built using correct raw material.
