Buying a used 2020 Audi S7? Check these 6 recalls first

6 NHTSA recalls · 3 owner complaints on file

This year's S7 shares the A6/A7 campaigns: high-severity recalls for a passenger airbag that may not deploy correctly, a rear suspension nut that can break, and engine power loss from spills, alongside medium recalls for rear axle alignment causing uneven tire wear, an inaccurate fuel gauge, and a rearview camera that may not show an image. No stop-driving or park-outside instruction applies. NHTSA lists just three unverified owner complaints — electrical twice, plus steering, speed control and power train — with no crashes, fires or injuries.

Before you buy

1. Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
2. Ask for repair-order proof of the airbag, suspension nut and engine power-loss recall work
3. Have the rear suspension and axle alignment inspected, including tire wear across both rear tires
4. Verify the rearview camera displays and the fuel gauge tracks a known fill level
5. Open recalls are repaired free at any Audi dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
