The charging system used to charge the vehicle cannot be used at full capacity otherwise it can cause a fire. Potential house fire, wiring damage to home. This problem has been confirmed by the manufacturer. The components have not been inspected because Audi does not have a remedy for this recall. There are no warnings on the vehicle. Lights flicker in the home when charging. Electrical system
My car has been under a recall since 2023. I have been at the dealership for normal maintenance and for the recall several times now but the dealership/Audi says that it's monitoring the battery remotely and doesn't replace the battery. No fix has been done until now and the recall/fix keeps being delayed. Electrical system
