AIR BAGS:SENSOR:OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION:FRONT PASSENGER

Manufacturer

What Happened

BACK OVER PREVENTION: SENSING SYSTEM: CAMERA

Manufacturer
Volkswagen Group of America, Inc.
What Happened
The rearview camera system on your vehicle is designed to give you a clear view of the area behind your car. In some 2019-2026 Audi models, a software glitch could prevent the camera image from showing up on your screen.
Risk if Unfixed
If the camera image doesn't appear, you'll have a smaller view of the area behind your vehicle, which could lead to a crash, especially when backing out of a parking space or driveway.
Free Fix
Your Audi dealer will update the software to fix the issue, and this repair is completely free. You should schedule the update as soon as possible to ensure your safety on the road.
