Recall 22V064 covers 665 2022 Audi Q3 SUVs with rearview-camera software that can block initial display in reverse. Free repair at a franchised Audi dealer.
Audi is recalling 665 2022 Q3 vehicles under recall 22V064 because a software error can keep the rearview camera image from showing when the vehicle starts to reverse. That missing image reduces the driver's rear view and increases crash risk; the Audi dealer repair will be free once available.

What's wrong?
The rear camera software on the 2022 Audi Q3 runs through the infotainment control unit. When the driver shifts into reverse, that software is supposed to send the rearview camera image to the display so the area behind the SUV is visible before backing up.
This recall covers Q3 SUVs that went through Audi recall 91CR, but the infotainment control unit did not receive the needed update. The scanner tool showed the update as complete even though the software flash had not actually finished, so the vehicle kept the older rear camera behavior. Under certain conditions, the rearview image does not initially appear when reverse begins, which means the vehicle does not fully meet FMVSS 111 for rear visibility.
There is no warning sign before failure. The first thing an owner would notice is the rearview image failing to appear at the start of a backing maneuver.

Not every 2022 Audi Q3 is on the list. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific SUV is included.
What's the safety risk?
When the rearview camera shows no image, the driver loses part of the rear view and the risk of a crash increases while backing up. There is no warning sign before the display failure, so check mirrors and surroundings carefully and schedule service soon. Repair will be free at any franchised Audi dealer once available.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2022 Audi Q3 is included in this recall.
- Contact Audi customer service at 1-800-253-2834 to confirm whether the dealer update is open for your VIN.
- Schedule the free infotainment parameter update with a franchised Audi dealer so the rearview camera image displays when the vehicle shifts into reverse.
- Reference recall number 22V064 and Audi recall 91DF when you call.
- Bring the owner notice if you have it, and avoid relying only on the screen when backing up until the update is complete.
What happens at the repair
At the dealer, an Audi technician updates the infotainment unit parameters so the rearview camera image is triggered correctly when reverse is selected. The dealer repair will be free once available, and parts and labor are covered under recall 22V064. Out of pocket repairs already paid are handled through the New Vehicle Limited Warranty, not through a separate reimbursement program, because Audi says these vehicles are within the warranty period. Ask the service desk how that warranty coverage applies if you have prior repair paperwork.
