There is a recall for this vehicle for battery overheating and vehicle catching on fire. Audi is unable to remedy this issue at this time. I notice routinely that the charging wire used to charge this vehicle becomes extra hot during charging. I have discussed this issue with Audi but they claim they cannot help me at this time. I'm worried about danger of fire. Please help.

I was in Portland, Oregon, charging the car at a 350 fast station located in Fred Meyer and it was snowing and raining at the same time. I couldn't get the car to charge more the 90 % and got only 175 miles. Since it was wet, the car windshield will not defrost. The visibility in the car was not very good. I start driving back home to Eugene, around 100 miles. I was concern if i can make it home. When i arrive home, i had only 20 miles left on the charge. The car used to get 230 to 240 miles ranges. Now, even in mild weather, i get 199 miles maximum with 100% charge. I left the car to the dealer to check the battery and they didn't find anything wrong. Now, I will not drive the car in cold weather since i feel not safe driving more than a 100 miles and the charging station will not deliver the charge at more than 20 kw(it will take 2 days to charge the battery at 20 kw).

The battery malfunctioned and discharged rapidly while it was being shipped in a covered tow truck overnight (moving). The manual resets do not work, and it is very difficult to tow. The battery charge port manual release does not work as advertised in the instruction manual. Directions and labeling are not clear on the manual release. The car completely shuts down and cannot even move it into manual mode to push it. Have made numerous service appointments as it can lose 20-30% charge without even driving. The estimates for mileage are wrong too. The car is advertised as 220. After having driven the car about 12,000 miles, the true range is 180 at best on a full charge.

With less than 32,000 miles and approximately 1.5years of ownership, this brand new 2021 Audi Etron began having major electrical malfunctions. This was first noted as sudden inability to properly accelerate on the highway and an "electrical system malfunction" warning light on the dashboard. It was delivered to the Audi dealership service department where it was diagnosed as needing a brand new rear motor. Within 45 days of this repair being completed I again got the same "electrical system malfunction" warning light. It was taken to another dealership service department. They claimed it was a coolant issue and that the car was fixed. However, the very next day the same "electrical system malfunction" warning light was again alarming. The car was taken to yet another dealership service department where it was diagnosed as needing yet ANOTHER motor. This are major electrical problem in an electric vehicle and could've cause my car to completely die while driving. The vehicle now has a safety recall regarding the home charging cord component. As of now, there is no repair and Audi does not anticipate one available until mid 2024. As such, customers are being told it is only safe to charge your car to 50% volume.

my house wire heats up and can't charge my car at home when its done charging cable is so hot can't hold it.

I purchased an Audi eTron 2022 in November 0f 2021. My wife has always loved the brand. Indeed, if you look at your sales records, you’ll find that we’ve purchased a Q5, two Q7s, and most recently an eTron from Audi North Austin. We’ve also always used your store for all the maintenance of our Audis. Approximately 5 months after buying the eTron we started experiencing glitches: -Screen randomly powering off -Random warnings, indicating something or another was not functioning. -The alarm would go off while the car in parked in our home garage. The key FOB was unable to disengage the alarm even if we get into the car and start it. The main issue I want to address is the most disturbing. On approximately 6 occasions, the car would come to an abrupt stop while traveling at about 35-45mph. I contacted Audi North Austin to have these issues looked at. I was given an appointment that was about two months out. In any case, this lea to the first visit to your service department for diagnostic and to address the issues. A couple of the minor issues listed above were fixed. However, we were informed that the abrupt stopping issue was escalated to Audi HQ but no fix was currently available. The service department rep did say, the did a software update and that might address the issue. About two weeks after the car was returned to us. We once again experienced the abrupt stopping again. (FYI, the impact of those stops is equivalent to getting rear-ended) This led to visit two. On this visit I was more reassured than the first visit. I spoke to Edwin and he was very sympathetic to our plight. He even suggested what he thought the problem might be. He mentioned that there is a sensor that runs down the side of the driver’s side and that that sensor may need to be replaced. Unfortunately, Edwin was wrong. Because a few weeks later while traveling about 45-50mph merging onto [XXX] . This particular incident put us closer to death that the previous ones.

Sudden and complete power loss while accelerating at stop light into an intersection, causing car to stop in the intersection. Error message briefly flashed on dashboard screen indicating failure of all wheel drive module. Estimated mileage fluctuated from 57 miles to 22 miles back to 50 miles. I turned the vehicle off and on several times, after second restart power was restored and the car drove as normal.

Reverse lights do not meet minimum required illumination under J593c. Consequently, when dark, it is impossible to see objects or curbs behind the vehicle in the backup camera screen even on maximum brightness creating a safety hazard.
