Audi e-tron recalls
- Audi e-Tron (2018 – 2019): Due to a faulty seal, moisture could reach the high voltage battery through the cabling of the charging socket and the electronics box. Consequently, the high-voltage system could short-circuit increasing the risk of fire. Production dates: December 2018 – March 2019.
- Audi e-tron (2019 – 2021): Alteration of the rear axle’s toe and/or camber values lead to increased and uneven wear on the rear tyres, and if worn down to its carcass may suffer a sudden loss of pressure. This can lead to loss of traction and may affect vehicle handling, increasing the risk of an accident. Risk type – Injuries. Production dates: 07.11.2019 – 16.04.2021.
- Audi e-Tron (2019 – 2021): A weld on the brake booster may be defective, which could cause the brake booster, ABS and ESP to fail. This may lead to increased braking distance and to reduced manoeuvrability of the vehicle when braking, increasing the risk of an accident. Risk type – Injuries. Production dates: 15.01.2019 – 03.06.2021.
Car recalls check
- Audi e-tron (2019 – 2021): The nuts on the eccentric bolt of the rear-axle spring-link control arm may break due to stress corrosion. As a result, the rear axle could move in the wrong direction, in an uncontrollable manner at high speeds. Risk type – Injuries. Production dates: 7 November 2019 – 16 April 2021.
- Audi e-tron (2020 – 2021): Due to a software defect, there may be a sporadic loss of performance during driving and the response to pressing the accelerator pedal may be impeded. Risk type – Injuries. Production dates: 20 November 2020 – 20 April 2021.
- Audi e-Tron (2021): Components of the brake pressure unit could corrode over time, which may affect braking assistance, speed indication, the anti-lock braking system and the electronic stability control functions. The vehicle stopping distance is increased. ABS (anti-lock brake system) and ESC (electronic stability control) system failure may reduce the maneuverability of the vehicle when braking, increasing the risk of an accident. Risk type – Injuries. Production dates: 06/05/2021 – 14/07/2021.
