2019 AUDI E-TRON Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2019 Audi E-Tron has 11 recalls, the most serious being a brake pedal that can detach from the brake booster and cause complete loss of braking ability. Three separate filings cover this same brake issue, where a fastener connecting the brake pedal and brake booster can come loose and leave the driver with no braking response. Fire risk is the other major concern across several recalls. The high-voltage battery can overheat and catch fire in certain vehicles, and a faulty seal on the charging socket can let moisture into the battery system, causing a short circuit and raising the fire risk further. On the charging side, the 220V compact home charging cable plug can be damaged at the outlet and overheat during charging, and a broader recall covering the onboard charging cable addresses a similar overheating risk at the outlet or cable itself. There is also a software issue where the rearview camera image may fail to appear when the vehicle is shifted into reverse, reducing visibility while backing up.
