2 recalls covering model years 2020, 2021. To check whether your vehicle is affected, look up your 17-character VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls — a recall may apply only to some vehicles of a given year.
On some E-Tron Sportback vehicles, the fastener connecting the brake pedal to the brake booster may not have been properly assembled. This can cause the brake pedal to detach from the booster, which can cause a loss of braking and increase the risk of a crash.
Audi is recalling certain 2019 through 2026 vehicles, including A6, A7, Q7, Q8 and e-tron models. A software error can keep the backup camera picture from showing on the screen the way it is supposed to. Because the rear camera view may not appear, these vehicles do not meet the federal safety rule covering what a driver must be able to see behind the vehicle.
