Today's recall alert involves a few Audis and a previous recall. Some 2019 Audi Q8, Audi A7, and Audi A6 models are affected.


Volkswagen Group of America is recalling 1,620 vehicles from the 2019 model year due to a software issue that could deactivate the lane departure warning system. The recall affects the Audi Q8, Audi A7, and Audi A6 that were previously repaired under an earlier recall.

According to the company, a software error introduced during the earlier repair may cause the lane departure warning system to become disabled. If the system is inactive, drivers would not receive alerts when the vehicle begins to drift out of its lane.

Dealers will correct the issue by updating the vehicle’s software at no cost to owners. Notification letters are expected to be mailed beginning May 1, 2026. Owners can also contact Audi customer service for more information using recall number 90TW.

  • Andarris Here in the Toronto area I haven't seen a 2006-2012 with intact rocker pannels for over two years now. I presume everywhere around the Great Lakes is the same ? They were super cheap dhring the first two years of the pandemic - could get one with less than 85K for around $6500 certified or a little higher mileage for $5000. Glad I skipped it, even in 2021 some of the 10's &11's were displaying corosion like you'd see on a 7 year older Impala, Camry or Accord. Also the mid-model switch to EPS made me balk at the few clean ones I found.

  • Big Al from Oz gidday mites how are yall feelin today? Want to have a barbie? We are right here gettin dee fire ready
  • Michael S6 The 3 Amigos better hope that the oil spike is short lived as 4-5 dollar a gallon gas would put a damper on their cash cows especially "Ford's strategic shift" of killing off the escape/Lincoln cousin. Most other automakers have a full line of vehicles with much better full economy. GM is sucking air and its Cadillac devision is mostly EV and geriatric line up of ICE cars and SUV's that were supposed to be phased out this year. The expensive gas may push shoppers toward EV but GM's horrible EV reliability is a barrier.
  • Tane94 I read the GM press release about first quarter sales 2026 vs 2025 and Buick is getting its butt kicked:Buick Total* 41,654 61,822 -32.6 The future is bleak for Buick.
