Airbag System Malfunctions

Multiple recalls address potential non-deployment or improper deployment of airbags, including frontal, side/window, and curtain airbags. Issues can stem from sensors, control modules, or inflators. Estimated repair cost: $500 - $2,000+.

A recall addresses potential leaks from the fuel rails, posing a fire hazard. This can be due to faulty components or improper sealing. Estimated repair cost: $400 - $1,000.

Some 3.0L TFSI engines can exhibit increased oil consumption, potentially due to piston ring wear or PCV system issues. This can lead to low oil levels and engine damage if not addressed. Estimated repair cost: $1,500 - $3,000+.
