Known issues

High
2019-2020 Audi e-tron experienced a high-voltage battery moisture-ingress recall (NHTSA 19V-637) tied to a charging-cable seal. Affected vehicles were repaired by Audi at no cost.
Low
Conservatively-tuned BMS reserves a large unusable buffer (about 9 kWh of the 95 kWh nameplate). The trade-off is exceptionally low aggregate degradation in fleet data — among the best of any 2019-vintage EV.
Low
DC fast-charging tops at 150 kW and is well-engineered; sustained sessions hold rate longer than most peers because of the conservative buffer.

How this pack ages (industry context)

Industry fleet aggregates: 2.3% average annual capacity loss across 22,700 EVs / 21 models (Geotab, 2026), and 95% range retention at 5 years on average across 30,000+ vehicles (Recurrent, 2026).

OEM warranty floor on this pack: 8 yr / 100k mi to 70% capacity.

Public per-pack degradation curves are not available for most models. Individual results vary materially with climate, charging behavior, and DC fast-charge frequency.

Battery-Related NHTSA Recalls

Recalls affecting battery, charging, electric propulsion, or thermal-event systems on vehicles using this pack. Recalls are deduplicated across model variants; affected vehicles are listed for each campaign.

23V867000 20/12/2023 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:PROPULSION SYSTEM:TRACTION BATTERY THERMAL:MANAGEMENT:SOFTWARE

Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. (Audi) is recalling certain 2020-2022 E-Tron Sportback Quattro and 2019-2022 E-Tron Quattro vehicles. Certain high-voltage battery modules may overheat.

Consequence: A high-voltage battery that overheats increases the risk of a fire.

Affects: Audi e-tron 2019-2023

23V842000 13/12/2023 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:PROPULSION SYSTEM:CHARGING:CABLE/CORD:ONBOARD

Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. (Audi) is recalling certain 2022-2024 RS e-tron GT, e-tron GT, Q4 e-tron Sportback, Q4 e-tron, 2020-2021 Audi A8, 2019-2024 e-tron Quattro, 2020-2024 e-tron Sportback Quattro, Q5, and 2021-2022 A7 vehicles. When using the industrial 220V/240V plug at the 100% charge setting, some home power outlets may be incapable of handling the electrical current required to utilize the compact charging system, causing the outlet or charging cable to overheat.

Consequence: An overheated outlet or charging cable can increase the risk of a fire.

Affects: Audi e-tron 2019-2023

19V434000 10/06/2019 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:PROPULSION SYSTEM:TRACTION BATTERY

Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. (Audi) is recalling certain 2019 Audi e-tron vehicles. Moisture can enter the high-voltage battery system through a faulty seal on the charging socket.

Consequence: Moisture in the high-voltage system can cause a short-circuit, increasing the risk of fire. If warning lights appear along with the message "Electrical system: fault," immediately stop driving the vehicle, park outdoors away from structures, do not charge the vehicle, and contact Audi Roadside Assistance at 1-800-411-9988 to have the vehicle towed.

Affects: Audi e-tron 2019-2023
