Manufacturer
Volkswagen Group of America, Inc.
What Happened
The infotainment main unit is the brain of your car's entertainment system. In some 2021-2022 Audi models, it can get damaged when you turn off your engine, which means your rearview camera display won't work the next time you start your car.
Risk if Unfixed
If your rearview camera display isn't working, you'll have a blind spot when reversing, increasing the risk of a crash. This could lead to a serious accident.
Free Fix
Your Audi dealer will replace the infotainment main unit with a new one, free of charge. You should schedule the repair as soon as you get the recall notice.

BACK OVER PREVENTION: SENSING SYSTEM: CAMERA

Manufacturer
Volkswagen Group of America, Inc.
What Happened
Your Audi's rearview camera is a crucial safety feature that helps you see what's behind your vehicle. Unfortunately, in some 2019-2026 models, a software glitch might prevent the camera image from showing up on your screen.
Risk if Unfixed
If the rearview camera image doesn't display, you'll have a reduced view of what's behind your vehicle. This increases the risk of a collision, especially when reversing or backing up.
Free Fix
Your authorized Audi dealer will update the camera software for free, so you can rely on your rearview camera to work as intended. You've likely already received a recall notice in the mail, but you can also contact Audi customer service at 1-800-253-2834 for more information.

BACK OVER PREVENTION: SENSING SYSTEM: CAMERA

Manufacturer
Volkswagen Group of America, Inc.
What Happened
The rearview camera system in your Audi uses a camera to show you what's behind your car when you're in reverse. In some 2021-2022 models, a software glitch might prevent the camera image from showing up at first, which can be confusing when you're backing up.
Risk if Unfixed
If the rearview camera doesn't display an image, you might not see obstacles, pedestrians, or other cars behind you, which could lead to a collision.
Free Fix
Your Audi dealer will update the software controlling the infotainment system for free. You should schedule this update as soon as you get the recall notice, and it won't cost you anything.
