The 2022 Audi A6 Allroad has 4 recalls, the most serious involving the gateway control module, which can shut down if liquid spills in the rear seat, causing an abrupt and significant drop in engine power while driving.
Two recalls address rear visibility. A software error can prevent the rearview camera image from appearing on the infotainment screen when reversing, leaving the driver without the camera view behind the vehicle. These two recalls describe the same underlying visibility failure through separate filings, but the result is the same: no camera image when backing up.
The fourth recall involves the fuel level sender, a sensor that tracks how much fuel remains in the tank. On affected vehicles, the sender can stick and report an inaccurate reading on the dashboard gauge, so the displayed fuel level may not reflect reality. A driver who trusts a falsely high reading may unknowingly run out of fuel, causing the engine to stall unexpectedly.
