2022 AUDI E-TRON Complaints

Back up camera did not work and was unavailable. Car was in reverse and stationary. Issue was intermittent. Did not work three times in a row and then resolved itself. See attached photo

On 3 separate occasions brake pedal went all the way to the floor without stopping the vehicle. Pumping the brake pedal did not help as brake pedal went to the floor each time. After a few panic pumps all of sudden brakes worked as if nothing had happen. This was not a gradual regain of pedal force but full force as if nothing had happen. Did not see any indications on dashboard at the time and none were present after any of the events listed below. Note - Each event was after car sat in parking lot for at least 4 hours. First time was Jan 23, 2023 at ~ 12,300 miles leaving parking in the morning onto main road. Fortunately no traffic. Second event Feb 8 ~12,900 miles leaving parking lot onto main road in the morning. Fortunately no traffic. Third event Feb 9 ~ 12,940 miles leaving business parking lot in the afternoon and was approaching the exiting gate which rose out of the way in time for car not to hit the barrier. Car was taken to Audi Service on Feb 13, 2023 to be evaluated. Audi Service could not duplicate issue and kept the car for 11 days. Audi technical team advised replacing the brake booster module (PN 4KE-614-100-AG-BEF) which was done by Audi Service in South Burlington, VT. Original Brake Booster removed from car was kept at Audi Service.

Complete electrical system had a complete and unintended shut down making the vehicle totally inoperable for minute 15 seconds until electric (EV) power to the vehicle was restored. Occurred at a red light stop, if the power had failed while I was driving my 2022 Audi eTRON EV on Almaden Expressway, San JOse, CA would have had the potential to be catastrophic. Received a warning on the dashboard approximately 30 seconds prior to the unintended power failure to the vehicle indicating' "Malfunction of Driver Assistance". Vehicle also had experienced numerous false warning of traveling in the wrong direction on a one way road. This was incorrect as the warning indicated a street I was not driving on, that is approx. 85 miles away. This has happened approximately 4x prior to the unintended power disruption incident.

Electric car that does not hold power. Ad says full charge can get you to 220 mi, however i can barely get 170 mi of full charge.

The contact owns a 2022 Audi E-Tron. The contact stated while at a stop light and attempting to accelerate, the vehicle failed to respond. The contact stated that the vehicle lost motive power. The contact was turned off and restarted the vehicle and the vehicle operated as designed. On another occasion, the contact stated while driving 30 MPH, a message was displayed erroneously showing that the vehicle was heading in the wrong direction. The dealer was contacted, and a voicemail was left. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was 2,707. The contact stated that the manufacturer was contacted. The dealership had possession of the vehicle for over 30 days and could not replicate the issues.

The heater has failed. Dealer has diagnosed as high voltage heating unit failure. The issue is that this problem is occurring in many etron GTs and Porsche Taycans and there is no info from Audi as to when they will have replacement parts. No heat in the middle of winter, and the windows fog up, forcing you to drive with a window cracked open.

The contact owns a 2022 Audi E-Tron. The contact stated while at a complete stop at a traffic light in the middle of an intersection, the vehicle lunged 2-3 ft. forward. A message indicating a possible forward collision was displayed. The vehicle then turned off independently. The contact was able to restart the vehicle and continued driving; however, the failure reoccurred while at a complete stop. The dealer and the manufacturer were not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 5,000.

Upon the vehicle resting at a stop, for longer than 30 seconds, the vehicle will no longer accelerate. “SAFE” warning is shown by the instrument cluster. Had to turn power off to vehicle and back on for vehicle to accelerate. This has happened twice almost resulting in being rear ended and being stuck in traffic.

1. The brakes all of a sudden failed. We were at an elementary school in carpool line - near children- the brake pedal did not work at all, nothing. Warning message to stop driving brake failure. The Audi-Sense alert did at least put on the emergency parking brake before hitting a car ahead of us. Turned off and on, checking if computer vs actual brake issue (see below, computer issues as well). The car lurched forward, then warning, got out of line onto side of parking lot. After turning off and on again, it worked to drive again. Unclear right now if brakes actually gone but European recall Sept 2021 suggests this is really a brake issue and recall exactly as described here (I bought this car three months later, which suggests gross negligence on part of Audi here). 2. Tire sensors do not work, wrong readings on pressure. Safety issue. Similar e-tron recalled, but not mine - again, Audi negligence not properly recalling all impacted vehicles. 3. Additional computer errors. The screen goes black when in use and cannot be accessed while driving. Not a safety issue, but controls and visibility are lost. As I can only list 3 problems here will open a second issue for remaining failures on this 9 month old vehicle. Thank you, this model should not be sold in US. Unsafe.

On Thursday August 4, 2022, after backing out of a space, I placed the vehicle in drive and the vehicle shifted uncommanded to neutral prior to being motion. My vehicle has shifted to neutral once and park twice previously. I reported this issue to Audi of Indianapolis in May 2022, but no technical remedy was provided.
