What This Recall Means

Component

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:SOFTWARE

What Happened
The side marker lights on your vehicle are important for visibility at night. In some 2015-2017 Audi models, the software controlling these lights can malfunction, causing them to turn off when the parking lights or headlights are on.
Risk if Unfixed
If the side marker lights are off, your vehicle may be harder to see at night, which could increase the risk of a crash.

How to Get This Fixed

Free Fix
Your Audi dealer will update the software in your vehicle to fix the issue, free of charge. You should schedule the repair as soon as possible.
