SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:PEDALS AND LINKAGES
- The defect
- Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. (Audi) is recalling certain 2019-2024 Audi E-Tron and 2020-2024 Audi E-Tron Sportback vehicles. The fastener that connects the brake pedal and the brake booster may have been improperly assembled during manufacturing, which can cause the brake pedal to detach from the brake booster.
- What it can cause
- Brake pedal detachment can cause a loss of brake function and increase the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will inspect and repair the brake booster, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on October 1, 2024, and November 22, 2024. Owners may contact Audi customer service at 1-800-253-2834. Volkswagen's number for this recall is 46P6.
- NHTSA's note
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .

How this campaign compares
At 1,453 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 62% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers one model year, 2019, so the oldest vehicles on it were 5 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Audi vehicles have been recalled over the service brakes, hydraulic 7 times before this, most recently in August 2023 as 23V601000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
This site holds the complaint record for all 1 model year the campaign names. Their owners have filed 77 complaints with NHTSA, 45 of them before this campaign was filed. The earliest of them reached NHTSA in September 2019, 4 years before this filing.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 3 other recalls published here: 25V900000 (back over prevention), 23V867000 (electrical system), 23V842000 (electrical system).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. with NHTSA on August 19, 2024 as campaign 24V621000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
