Transport Canada lists: A 7 2022 · Q 5 2022–2024

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the high-voltage battery could overheat. As a result, the battery could create smoke or heat, which can melt or damage the battery and nearby parts. Note: This recall only affects plug-in hybrid (PHEV) models. This recall replaces Transport Canada recall no. 2025-064. Vehicles that were repaired under that recall don't require this repair.

Why it matters

A battery that overheats can create a fire risk.

What the dealer will do

To reduce the safety risk, Audi advises not to charge your vehicle until the recall repairs have been completed. Audi will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to install an advanced diagnostic software that will monitor the high-voltage battery and warn you if it detects a problem. If you see this warning, you should contact a dealership to arrange replacement of the affected high-voltage battery module.

What is wrong

Under certain conditions, a software problem could cause a delay before the rearview camera image appears. Canadian regulations require the rearview image to display within 2 seconds of shifting the transmission into reverse gear.

Why it matters

A rearview camera that is slow to turn on could reduce a driver's ability to see behind the vehicle while backing up. This could increase the risk of a crash.
