Known issues on the 2025 Q8. Two recalls are on federal record for this model year. One covers the front seat belt anchorage: the driver and front passenger seat belt buckles may be missing the rivet that secures the buckle to the stalk, so the belt may not properly restrain an occupant in a crash, and dealers replace both front buckles. One covers the rearview camera: a software error may keep the rearview image from displaying, which reduces the driver's view behind the vehicle, and dealers update the software. Owners have filed 3 complaints with NHTSA for this model year.
Use this manual for the mild-hybrid V6 driveline, air suspension and chassis, driver assistance and camera systems, and body procedures Audi specifies for the Q8, including the seat belt and rearview camera work flagged above.
