Example complaints
Electrical system: “The rearview camera does not show when the vehicle is placed in reverse gear. We found that some Audi Q4 2022 was recalled #22V823000 but our car Q4 2022 was not. Now we got this issue. We believe that we should have be recalled and should be repaired free of charge. Thank you.”
NHTSA complaint #11519811, filed 2023-05Other or unknown: “I was hit by a large truck on the driver side as I was in the right lane catching up to a safe speed. The hit spun the car around at least 180 degrees. Due to the massive pain I couldn’t move. The car just shut off completely to include all functions. There were no prompts from the car’s emergency to call for help which I find as a fault. Luckily I was in a populated area and emergency was able to respond. I am seeing reports in forums with photo evidence that the SOS function is malfunctioning. The car is likely in a junk yard. I took the car in a month or so back for a charging module fault. …”
NHTSA complaint #11566719, filed 2024-01Engine: “Upon starting the car after a long (100 mile) drive many error warnings occurred and the vehicle was very difficult to drive. We only attempted to back out of the driveway so it could be towed for repair. Audi has had the car for 4 months and has been unable to diagnose the problem and fix the car.”
