Buying a used 2025 Audi Q6 E-TRON? Check these 3 recalls first
A first-model-year EV with a short recall list and nothing rated critical: rear seat belts that may not lock child seats, plus two separate rearview camera defects, one a blurry image and one a camera that may not display at all. The complaint side is busier, with 31 unverified NHTSA reports, roughly two-thirds of them electrical, then forward collision avoidance, power train and fuel/propulsion. One crash and two injuries are recorded. The pattern leans toward electronics rather than mechanical failure.
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.
- Confirm both rearview camera recalls were performed, then check image clarity yourself
- Test the rear belt locking mode with a child seat if you use one
- Ask what software updates the car has received given the electrical complaints
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Audi dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
