What Happened
The rearview camera in your vehicle is a camera that shows you what's behind you when you're backing up. But in some 2019-2026 Audi models, a software glitch can prevent this camera from showing you the right image.
Risk if Unfixed
If the rearview camera image doesn't work as it should, you'll have a harder time seeing what's behind your vehicle, which could lead to a collision.
Free Fix
Your Audi dealer will update the software that controls the rearview camera, so it works correctly again – and this repair is free. You should contact your dealer as soon as you get the recall notice to schedule the update.
