What This Recall Means

Component

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY

What Happened
The fuel tank on your Audi A6 or Allroad has a plastic valve that helps prevent fuel spills in a rollover. Over time, this valve can crack due to aging and stress from the surrounding parts.
Risk if Unfixed
If the valve cracks, fuel can leak out and ignite, causing a fire. This is a serious risk to your safety and the safety of others.

How to Get This Fixed

Free Fix
Your Audi dealer will reinforce or repair the cracked valve to prevent leaks. This repair is free, and you should schedule it as soon as possible to ensure your safety on the road.
