What Happened
The rearview camera system in your Audi uses a camera to show you what's behind your vehicle when you're backing up. However, in certain models, a software glitch could prevent this camera image from showing up on your screen.
Risk if Unfixed
If the rearview image doesn't display, you'll have a reduced view of what's behind your vehicle, making it more likely you could back into something or someone.
Free Fix
Your Audi dealer will update the software to fix the issue, and this repair is free. You should schedule the update as soon as you get the recall notice, and you can contact Audi customer service at 1-800-253-2834 for more information.
