What Happened
The rearview camera system in your vehicle relies on special software to show you what's behind your car. In certain 2019-2026 models, this software may not work properly, preventing you from seeing the full view behind your vehicle.
Risk if Unfixed
If the rearview image doesn't display, you might not see important things like pedestrians, cars, or obstacles behind your vehicle, which could lead to a crash.
Free Fix
Your Audi dealer will update the camera system's software to ensure it works correctly, and this repair is completely free. You'll get a notification letter with instructions on how to schedule the update.
