What Happened
The fuel line in your Audi S6 or S7 is responsible for delivering gasoline from the engine to the fuel injectors. Due to a manufacturing issue, this line may develop a small leak.
Risk if Unfixed
If there's a leak and a spark, the fuel could ignite, causing a fire. This is a serious risk, especially when you're driving or stationary with the engine running.
Free Fix
Your Audi dealer will replace the faulty fuel line with a new, reliable one at no cost to you. You'll get a notification when the repair is scheduled, likely in late October.
