2022 AUDI RS E-TRON GT Complaints and Recall Information

The 2022 AUDI RS E-TRON GT has 0 complaints and 8 recalls filed with NHTSA. Owners most frequently report issues related to electrical systems, propulsion batteries, air bags, and braking components as indicated by recall actions.

The vehicle has eight recalls addressing defects within multiple systems. These recalls involve propulsion battery modules, occupant classification sensors, charging cables, and brake hoses.

• Propulsion battery short circuit. Certain vehicles have high-voltage battery modules susceptible to short circuits that increase fire risk. Owners are often instructed to limit charging capacity to 80% until repairs are made.
• Passenger air bag deactivation. Faults in the occupant classification sensor wiring can deactivate the front passenger air bag even when the seat is occupied, raising injury risk during a collision.
• Charging cable overheating. Using the 220V/240V compact charging cable with some home outlets can cause overheating of the outlet or cable, raising fire risk. Dealers replace the cable with a version that has a temperature sensor.
• Front brake hose tears. Front axle brake hoses may develop tears causing fluid leaks and brake circuit failure, potentially lengthening brake pedal travel and stopping distances.
• Advanced battery diagnostics. New software is installed as a remedy to monitor and diagnose battery module conditions. Some vehicles require repeated diagnostics or module replacements based on online data availability.

The following recalls provide further detail on these issues and the associated remedies.

• Traction battery modules. (NHTSA 24V228000) Affected 1009 vehicles from 2022-2024 models face risks from short circuits in battery modules that could cause fire. Owners must keep charging below 80% until repair. Dealers replace modules as needed at no cost. Notification sent May 21, 2024.
• Passenger air bag sensor. (NHTSA 25V227000) Faulty wiring may deactivate the front passenger air bag in 3773 vehicles from 2022-2023. Replacement of the seat cushion corrects the issue. Notification sent July 15, 2025.
• Onboard charging cable. (NHTSA 23V842000) Overheating risks affect 93196 vehicles using the 220V/240V charging cable. Owners advised to use only 110V cables or public stations. Dealers provide a new cable with a temperature sensor free of charge. Notification sent March 28, 2024.
• Front brake hoses. (NHTSA 24V465000) In 9653 vehicles, front axle brake hoses may tear causing brake fluid leaks and reduced braking performance. Dealers replace hoses free of charge. Notification sent August 6, 2024.
• Battery software and diagnostics. (NHTSA 24V726000) A software update monitors battery condition in 6499 vehicles. Online data monitoring or diagnostic checks determine if modules require replacement. Charging is limited to 80% during the interim. This recall expands and replaces prior battery-related recalls. Notifications were sent July 24 and 28, 2025.
• Traction battery replacement. (NHTSA 24V229000) An additional 33 vehicles were recalled for battery short circuit risks similar to other propulsion battery recalls. Charging restrictions and free module replacement apply. Notification sent May 21, 2024.

Owners facing repeated repairs or unresolved safety defects related to propulsion batteries or braking systems may have rights under their state’s lemon law. Consulting a qualified attorney can provide guidance for such situations.
