The vehicle developed a coolant leak from the water pump and thermostat housing assembly at relatively low mileage (less than 27,000 miles). The failure caused coolant loss and low coolant warning messages, requiring major repair due to the engine\u2019s integrated \u201chot-V\u201d cooling system design.  Research shows many similar reports involving Audi EA825 4.0T vehicles (SQ7, SQ8, RS6, RS7, etc.) experiencing water pump and thermostat leaks, along with multiple revised OEM part numbers and redesigned components.  This defect creates a potential safety risk because sudden coolant loss can lead to overheating, limp mode, loss of power, or breakdown while driving.  I request that NHTSA investigate whether these recurring cooling system failures on EA825 4.0T engines represent a broader defect trend.  Thank you for your attention to this matter.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2021","productMake":"AUDI","productModel":"SQ7","manufacturer":"Volkswagen Group of America, Inc."}]}]}
