Reliability & federal safety record

Owner-reported issues, recalls, investigations and service bulletins on record with NHTSA — an unfiltered look at what owners actually experience.

The 2024 Audi Q5 represents a mid-cycle refresh within its generation, and the federal data shows a relatively stable reliability profile compared to surrounding years. Complaints for 2024 (19) are lower than the 2023 total (31) and significantly below the 2021 peak (69), while recalls (4) remain consistent with the 5-6 range typical of recent model years. The trend suggests Audi has addressed earlier issues, as 2024’s complaint volume is among the lowest in the past decade, though the data doesn’t specify root causes for the reported problems—primarily forward collision avoidance and brake-related concerns. With no crash or fire complaints and a recall count in line with the generation’s average, 2024 appears to be a refinement year rather than one plagued by systemic issues. The absence of investigations further supports its relative stability. For a used purchase, this positions the 2024 Q5 as a favorable choice within the generation, assuming proper maintenance and recall remedies are verified.
