What Happened
Your vehicle's infotainment system has a touchscreen display that shows you what's behind your car. In some 2021-2022 Audi models, this display may stop working after the car is turned off and won't show you the rearview camera image when you start the car again.
Risk if Unfixed
If the rearview camera display fails, you'll have reduced visibility behind your car, which could lead to a crash.
Free Fix
Your Audi dealer will replace the infotainment main unit with a new one at no cost to you. Schedule an appointment as soon as you get the recall notice.
