AUDI A3, Q2 (2019–2023)
What the hazard is
A sudden loss of motive power and reduced or poor visibility whilst driving could increase the risk of an accident causing serious injury or death to vehicle occupants and other road users.
What to do
Owners of affected vehicles will be contacted by Audi Australia Pty Ltd and are asked to arrange with their nearest authorised Audi dealership to have the work carried out, free of charge.
Defect
Due to an installation defect, the internal fuse box wiring harness may become loose. If this occurs, the instrument cluster may fail to illuminate, internal, external lamps may switch off, and the vehicle may experience a sudden loss of motive power whilst driving. Note: In an event of failure, the driver will be able to steer and apply the brakes.
