Consistent with general Audi corporate policy governing Updates, Audi is not notifying
consumers. (Updates differ from recalls and service actions; consumers are notified in writing
of recalls and service actions.) Each vehicle should be completed when it is in to the dealer for
maintenance or any other service visit. Dealer stock vehicles cannot, however, be delivered
to consumers until the Update is completed.
To identify any vehicles in your inventory that are affected by this Update, please run the “New
and CPO Inventory Open Campaign/Action Listing” report from the OMD Web system.
Dealers must ensure that every affected vehicle gets the update before delivery to consumers.
Your effort is integral in reaching the highest quality expectations of Audi customers.
Thank you for your cooperation and assistance in this important matter.
