## What is wrong

Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. \(Audi\) is recalling certain 2009\-2015 Q7 vehicles.  The Gross Axle Weight Rating \(GAWR\) listed on the certification label is incorrect, which can allow the vehicle to be overloaded.  As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 110, "Tire Selection and Rims," and Part 567, "Certification."


## What can happen

An overloaded vehicle can increase the risk of a crash.


## The remedy

Dealers will install an overlay label containing the correct rear GAWR on top of the existing safety certification label, free of charge.  Owner notification letters were mailed April 24, 2023.  Owners may contact Audi's customer service at 1\-800\-253\-2834.  Audi's number for this recall is 50G5.


## Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1\-888\-327\-4236 \(TTY 1\-800\-424\-9153\), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
