Issue
Issue:
On certain vehicles, the recall repairs completed by an Audi dealer during recall 82C7 (Transport Canada recall no. 2023-314) may not be effective. As a result, a second repair may be required.
On certain vehicles, the high-voltage electric heater could fail. If this happens, you may experience reduced cabin heat, and the windshield defrost system may not work properly. Note: This recall replaces Transport Canada recall no. 2023-314.
Safety Risk:
A windshield defroster that doesn't work may cause reduced visibility and increase the risk of a crash.
Corrective Actions:
Audi will notify owners by mail. As an interim repair, if your high-voltage electric heater fails before the final repair is available, Audi will replace it with a new part of the same design, free of charge. When the final repairs are available, Audi will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the passenger compartment high-voltage electric heater with an improved part.
