Audi AG says it will recall about 70,000 diesel-powered 2012-model A4, A5, A6 and A7 cars and Q7 large crossover vehicles to replace a defective power brake booster.

All affected vehicles are equipped with the company's 3.0-liter diesel engine. Audi says the braking system could lose boost because of a leaky membrane in the system.
