New
York, May 13 (AP) Audi and Porsche are recalling a total of nearly
300,000 SUVs because they may develop cracks that cause fuel to leak,
which raises the risk of fire.
Volkswagen
Group of America’s Audi recall covers 240,487 Q5 and Q7 vehicles, with
model years ranging from 2013 to 2017. Dealers will replace fuel-pump
flanges that have cracks and apply a protective film to those that do
not.
Porsche’s
separate recall covers 51,497 vehicles, including certain 2015-17 Macan
S and Macan Turbo vehicles and 2017 Macan, Macan Turbo with the
Performance Package and Macan GTS vehicles. It will also replace any
flanges that are cracked and apply a protective film to those that
aren’t.
