What Happened
The rearview camera system in your vehicle relies on software to display a clear view behind your car. In some 2019-2026 models, the software can malfunction, causing the image to be distorted or not appear at all.
Risk if Unfixed
Without a clear view of what's behind your vehicle, you might not see a child, pet, or object that's about to be hit, increasing the risk of a collision.
Free Fix
Your Audi dealer will update the software controlling the rearview camera system, ensuring it works as intended – and this repair is completely free. Simply schedule the update when you receive the recall notice.
