EXTERIOR LIGHTING:HEADLIGHTS

Manufacturer

What Happened
The xenon headlamps in your vehicle are the bulbs that help you see the road ahead. Over time, the special coating on these bulbs can wear down, reducing the light they shine.
Risk if Unfixed
If this coating degrades, it could reduce the light from your headlamps, making it harder for you to see the road at night. This could increase your risk of a crash.
Free Fix
Your Audi dealer will replace the headlamp reflectors on both sides of your vehicle with new, improved ones, completely free of charge. You should schedule this repair as soon as possible.
