What Happened
The brake hoses in your Audi RS E-Tron GT or E-Tron GT are like the rubber tubes that carry brake fluid to your front brakes. In some 2022-2024 models, these hoses can develop tears that let the fluid leak out.
Risk if Unfixed
If the brake hoses fail, you could experience longer brake pedal travel and reduced braking power. This means it'll take you longer to stop your car, increasing the risk of a crash.
Free Fix
Your Audi dealer will replace the faulty brake hoses with new ones, at no cost to you. You should schedule the repair as soon as you get the recall notice, and you can contact Audi customer service at 1-800-253-2834 for more information.
