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.
- Verify airbag and rear seat belt recall completion by VIN.
- Request spill-related power loss and brake fluid cap repair records.
- Test rearview camera and instrument display operation.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Audi dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
