Known issues on the 2017 A3. Two recalls are on federal record for this model year. The first covers the passenger occupant classification sensor: the passenger occupant detection system can malfunction and switch off the passenger air bag even with the seat occupied, increasing the risk of injury in a crash. The second covers the gasoline fuel system: a suction jet pump seal inside the fuel tank can let fuel flow into the evaporative emissions system and leak out of the charcoal canister, and a fuel leak near an ignition source increases fire risk. Owners have filed 36 complaints for the year, and no technical service bulletins are logged. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind each of those systems are here.
From a passenger air bag deactivation fault to a fuel tank seal inspection or routine service, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your specific 2017 A3.
