Buying a used 2020 Audi A6 Allroad? Check these 4 recalls first
Two high-severity recalls define this year: a passenger airbag that may not deploy correctly, and a condition where spills can cause the engine to lose power. Rear axle alignment (uneven tire wear) and a rearview camera that may fail to show an image are the medium items. Just eight unverified owner complaints are on file — no crashes or fires, one injury — and six of those fall under electrical system. No stop-driving or park-outside warning is attached.
Before you buy
- Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
- Ask whether the engine has ever lost power or stalled, and look for spill damage around the console.
- Confirm the passenger airbag recall repair through a dealer VIN lookup.
- Check that the rearview camera image appears every time on startup.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Audi dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
