2019 Audi e-tron Complaints

The high-voltage charging flap assembly (Part 4KE810001) has failed, preventing the charge door from latching. Notably, this failure (DTC P31D000) occurred within 7 days of the vehicle being serviced at Audi Burlingame for a high-voltage battery software recall. This presents three safety hazards: 1. Driver Distraction: Triggers a continuous auditory chime and 'Warning! Please check the charging unit cover' message every 10 seconds. It cannot be silenced, creating a severe, persistent distraction. 2. Unintended Deployment: At highway speeds, the unlatched flap opens/flaps due to aerodynamics, creating a visual obstruction and distraction for the driver and traffic. 3. Moisture Ingress: Failure to seal the port exposes the high-voltage interface to pressurized rain/road spray. Per NHTSA 19V434 (Recall 93E8) regarding moisture ingress in this system, this failure represents a recurrence of a known safety risk. Evidence of Defect: Audi has iterated through three versions of this part...

The contact owns a 2019 Audi E-Tron. The contact stated that during rainy weather, there was water entering the vehicle through the roof, and water was leaking onto the infotainment system, the shifter, and other electronics. Additionally, the contact stated that there was water accumulating in the footwell. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was determined that water was leaking through the fully closed sunroof. The contact related the failure to TSB Number: AWA-23-09 (Sunroof Limited Warranty Extension) that stated that the dealer would address a condition of leakage and water ingress into the interior of the vehicle from the sunroof while in the fully closed position and would address consequential damages as a direct result of the water ingress. However, the dealer informed the contact that there was another TSB with the same TSB Number that overrode the bulletin information. The contact was informed that only 60 percent of the cost of the sunroof repair would be covered...

INCIDENT SUMMARY: On [XXX], I brought my 2019 Audi e-tron (VIN: [XXX] , 70k miles) to Audi Salt Lake City for Safety Recall 93U9 (High Voltage Battery Module). Vehicle was functioning normally with no warning lights or electrical issues. IMPROPER RECALL COMPLETION: The dealership's technician (Chris Miller, [XXX] ) documented in the service notes: "I FOUND THE GROUNDING STRAP FOR THE REAR MOTOR WAS NOT INSTALLED AND WAS TUCKED UP BETWEEN THE MOTOR AND THE COVERS." This proves the technician failed to properly reinstall the critical grounding strap during recall service, leaving it disconnected in the high voltage system. IMMEDIATE FAILURES AFTER RECALL: Following the recall service, multiple critical failures occurred: Voltage converter failure (part #4KE-907-171-C) Battery charging malfunction (limited to 100 miles range vs normal 200+ miles) Multiple stored fault codes and dashboard warning lights Rear drive motor faults Parking brake system failures All failures are consistent wit...

Batery is giving electrical malfunction alert. Dealer diagnosed SX6 failed, replaced at 52,991 miles on Dec 22, 2022 (they agreed to replaced free of charge), at 104,741 miles on Jan 6 2025, dealer diagnosed sx6 failed again, needed to be replaced.thry refused to replace at no charge. During the research online I found that many audi EV cars owners reported the same problem which SX6 failure could potentially causes the car could completelystop while operating.

I am reporting a serious safety concern with the rear backup camera on my 2019 Audi e tron. The camera provides extremely poor visibility at night and in low light conditions, to the point that it is effectively unusable. The image is very dark and grainy, making it difficult or impossible to see pedestrians, vehicles, curbs, or other obstacles while reversing. This creates a significant safety hazard, especially in residential areas, parking lots, and garages where pedestrians may be present. The issue occurs under normal operating conditions and is not related to dirt or obstruction on the camera lens. The problem has been consistent since ownership and does not appear to be an isolated incident. Given that backup cameras are federally mandated safety equipment, this level of nighttime performance undermines their intended purpose and increases the risk of accidents, injuries, or property damage. I believe this may represent a design or hardware defect that warrants investigation.
