The 2024 Audi RS E-Tron GT has 5 recalls, the most serious being a high-voltage battery defect that can cause an internal short circuit and raise the risk of a fire.
The battery fire risk is also tied to the onboard charging system: the charging cable or outlet can overheat during a charging session, creating a second fire-related concern separate from the battery module itself. On the braking side, the front axle brake hoses can develop tears and leak brake fluid, causing the brake pedal to travel further than normal before the vehicle slows, which extends stopping distances. A software error can also prevent the rearview camera from displaying an image when the vehicle is in reverse, reducing the driver's ability to see what is directly behind the car. All five recalls affect the same broad 2022-2024 model year range, so any RS E-Tron GT from those years may be subject to more than one of these issues.
