Risk and measures
- Risk or hazard
- If the hydraulic power steering hose leaks, it could cause reduced or complete power steering failure. This may lead to hydraulic fluid leaking into the engine compartment and igniting a fire if it comes into contact with hot components. If this was to occur it could increase the likelihood of a crash with potential for injury to occupants and other road users.
- Recommendations
- Audi Australia Pty Ltd is contacting all known owners of affected vehicles. Consumers should contact their nearest Audi Dealer to arrange for inspection and repair. The return hose for the power steering will be replaced with a new optimised return hose. For further information, contact the Audi Australia 24- hour toll free number 1800 50 AUDI (2834).
