What Happened
The fuel line in your Audi S6 or S7 is the hose that carries gasoline from your tank to your engine. In some 2013-2014 models with 4.0L engines, this line may not be properly sealed.
Risk if Unfixed
If the fuel line leaks, it could cause a fire if there's an ignition source nearby, like a spark or an open flame.
Free Fix
Your Audi dealer will replace the faulty fuel line with a new one, and it's free. You'll be notified when the repair is ready, and you should schedule it as soon as possible.
