Audi recalling 75,000 vehicles over fuel injection fire risk.

Citing an AP report, Fortune (3/5, Shoot, 3.84M) says Audi is “recalling 75,000 vehicles due to a fire risk.” Parts “of the vehicle fuel injection system could leak, according to the AP report, which is based on documents published by the federal government on Tuesday.” If the “leaking fuel comes in contact with an ignition source, it could catch fire.” According to Fortune, Audi is “recalling cars and SUVs, including A8 sedans (vehicles with model years 2015 to 2018), as well as A6, A7, and Q7 SUVs (model years 2016 to 2018)” in order “to prevent any potential damages and injuries.” In 2018, Audi “recalled nearly one million vehicles due to fire safety risks related to electric coolant pumps that had the potential to overheat.”
