2022 Audi Q3 Problems

Vehicle was serviced in 2025 for an electrical issue impacting multiple electrical components of car. Approximately one year later the car is back in the shop for both an electrical issue causing lane departure and now lane keep assist to trigger an error. I was told by the local dealership that it is likely related to an electrical module underneath the bumper of the rear of the car. The dealer is franchise and does not share records with other Audi dealerships and therefore unable to evaluate the problem with the prior Audi dealer who identified and repaired the first issue impacting multiple sensors. I was told this current issue seems to be related to a component underneath the harness of the rear bumper, but may be impacting other electrical systems.

Backup camera malfunctioned, and went black. It also didn’t stop me from backing into a car.

Dear Sir or Madam: I am submitting a safety complaint regarding my 2022 Audi Q3 involving water intrusion from the sunroof. At approximately 41,000 miles, approximately a month ago, water began leaking through the front edge of the sunroof despite the sunroof never being opened prior to the issue. The leak was not caused by clogged drains or lack of maintenance. Water entered through the overhead console, resulting in failure of the interior lighting system causing lights to flicker on/off and water dripping directly onto me, the driver, while operating the vehicle. These issues created a significant distraction and potential safety hazard, especially during night driving. The dealership diagnosed the issue and confirmed that the repair required modification of the sunroof assembly and track to correct a water intrusion problem. This was not a routine maintenance issue. The total cost of repair was $1,259.18, which I paid out-of-pocket. Additionally, the service advisor at the dealership stated that this is a frequent problem seen on Audi Q3 vehicles and expressed surprise that it has not already been subject to a recall. Given that this issue involves water intrusion affecting electrical components and actively interfering with safe vehicle operation, I believe this may represent a broader design or manufacturing defect impacting vehicle safety. I respectfully request that NHTSA review this issue for potential investigation and possible recall action. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Coolant leak was detected, multiple cracks in water pump. Once fixed 2 days later coolant got into wiring harness and caused multi system failure, car stalled on the freeway. Cost over $5k to fix at certified Audi dealer. Recall only covered until year 2021 and I have a 2022 model

When I go to fill up gas in my car when its nearing empty, I put the hose in to fill it up and it stops almost immediately. Sometimes it leaks out.

The break and gas pedal are made of hard plastic and they are very slippery. The should have been made of rubber to prevent slippage. I’m my opinion this is a safety issue.

Component: Brake pads and rotors Safety Risk: Distraction Reproduction: 100% reproducible on any day. Inspection: Inspected by dealer, dealer claims no malfunction. Warning lamps: None. Description: The brakes resonate in the calipers when creeping. The slip and grip of the pads on the rotors creates a tone that is possibly further amplified by the suspension springs. The car has 4k miles and has being doing this since the second day of ownership. Audi claims no responsibility and will not attempt to fix it. The noise is so loud that it is distracting and others often ask whats wrong with the car. They claim that this is normal. No other car of its class has brake noise to this extent.

My vehicle was idling and came to a complete stop and stopped the engine and then an electrical malfunction message appeared and the car wouldn’t start back up. Various error messages started to appear on the drivers display (tpms, abs stabilization, lane assistance disabled)

2022 Audi Q 3 engine shuts off completely when stopped at light/stop sign. Has happened twice. Car will not move. Must be put back into park and re start engine. Terrifying when cars are veering away from the car to avoid rear ending disabled car.

Driving on sunny day, 92 degrees. Turned AC on full blast and heard gunshot sound, sunroof glass completely exploded. Landed inside cabin and cut the driver and passenger, as the glass was incredibly sharp. Audi dealership will not even see vehicle, and stating that it is my fault. NO impact to glass whatsoever.

The infotainment system is damaged resulting in the display screen being blacked out. All of the safety features including rearview camera, parking assistance, Hands-free phone, and all other vehicle settings are not available. There are multiple warning notifications on the dashboard indicating a malfunction in the interior lighting, lane change, and parking systems. Even before the screen went out the rear camera would malfunction when the vehicle is in reverse. The sensor would cause the vehicle to abruptly brake even though there was no obstruction behind. The display failed on October 16, 2022. I took the vehicle into the Audi dealership for service on November 29,2022, however technician was not able to provide any information due to the manufacturer not having a solution to the recall. There is no estimated resolution date nor is there a remedy available for this issue. As a consumer I am very concerned that there is a defect involving the display screen and I am not comfortable driving. I rely heavily on these features when driving to prevent damage or injury. This is the second recall pertaining to the infotainment system within a year. This is very disconcerting because I am not able to use any of the features within the vehicle and the interior is extremely dark at night.

Tire size: 235/55 R 18 I bought my car on 10/2021. My car currently has 2,700 miles. My tires (all four tires) are suppose to be at 38 but every 3-4 days I have to add air because it keeps losing air. It’s gone down as low as 30. This issue started the end of March. I took my vehicle in for service mid April. The dealer stated that there are no wear and tears and no cracks but the tires keep losing air. I’m very concerned for my safety since I have to take the highway to get to my place of work. The warning symbol comes up and all the dealer did was reset the settings on my vehicle and add air. Something is wrong and it needs to be investigated. I’m very concerned for my safety and the safety of others.

Water constantly leak from ceiling light in vehicle. Sunroof seal either need replaced. Leaking roof pose a serious risk of meeting in accident for it tamper with vision and electrical components. Passenger side rear door also making unseen sound
