The VIN on your Audi Q5 can be found on the driver's side dashboard (visible through the windshield), inside the driver's door jamb on a sticker, on your vehicle registration card, and on your insurance documents. It's a 17-character code made up of letters and numbers.

Does the Audi Q5 have any recalls?

Yes. NHTSA lists 12 recall campaigns for the Audi Q5 across model years 2021–2025, most commonly affecting the electrical system, seat belts, air bags.
