Volkswagen Group of America, Inc.
What Happened
The rearview camera system in your vehicle uses a camera to show you what's behind your vehicle. However, in certain models from 2019-2026, a software glitch could prevent the camera image from showing up on your screen.
Risk if Unfixed
If the camera image doesn't display, you'll have a reduced view of what's behind you, making it harder to see pedestrians, bicycles, or other vehicles, which could increase the risk of a crash.
Free Fix
Your Audi dealer will update the software for the rearview camera system at no cost to you. Just schedule the repair as soon as you get the recall notice, and the fix will be taken care of.
