What Happened
The connections on your SQ5 Sportback's tailgate might not be secure, which means the metal sheets that make up the tailgate could come loose.
Risk if Unfixed
If the tailgate comes loose during a crash, it could reduce the protection of your vehicle, increasing the risk of injury to you and your passengers.
Free Fix
Audi will replace the tailgate free of charge. You should schedule the repair as soon as you receive the recall notice, which is expected to arrive on September 30, 2022.
