The 342,867 A5, A5 Cabriolet and Q5 SUVs are being recalled over a fire hazard, as the turbocharged engines using a coolant pump that can cause a fire when clogged with debris. 
 
Meanwhile, the 234,054 2011-2017 Q5 SUVs have an airbag issue – the water from the sunroof drainage system can soak into the foam around side air bag inflators, potentially causing the inflator to explode.
