July 26, 2021 NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 21V569000
Separation of the rotor and shaft may cause a reduction in braking assistance and a loss of the Antilock Brake System (ABS) and Electronic Stability Control (ESC), increasing the risk of a crash.
NHTSA Campaign Number: 21V569
Manufacturer Volkswagen Group of America, Inc.
Components SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
Potential Number of Units Affected 498
Summary
Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. (Volkswagen) is recalling certain 2021 E-Tron Quattro and 2020-2021 Audi E-Tron Sportback Quattro vehicles. An improperly welded rotor and shaft may separate within the integrated brake system.
Remedy
Dealers will replace the brake booster, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed September 14, 2021. Owners may contact Audi customer service at 1-800-253-2834. Volkswagen’s number for this recall is 47R1.
Notes
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
Check if your Audi has a Recall
Issue:
The rotor and the shaft of the integrated brake system may not have been welded to specifications. During a hard braking maneuver, the ABS hydraulic control unit rotor and shaft could separate, which could lead to a reduction in braking assistance (brake boost) as well as a loss of Antilock Brake System (ABS) functionality and Electronic Stability Control (ESC). Full mechanical braking is still available. During a hard braking maneuver, a reduction in brake assistance (brake boost) could lead to an extended stopping distance. In combination with a loss of ABS and ESC functionalities, this could increase the risk of a crash.
Precautions
A failure of the brake booster will be indicated by a warning message in the vehicle’s instrument cluster. Should this occur, customers are advised to contact their authorized Audi dealer without delay and make arrangements to have the vehicle serviced.

CAUTION
Risk of an accident due to the water content in
the brake fluid being too high. Brake fluid is
hygroscopic, meaning that it absorbs moisture
from the surrounding air.
Brake failure due to the formation of steam
bubbles.
Store brake fluid in air-tight containers.
Immediately seal any open brake hoses and brake
lines.
CAUTION
There is a risk of contamination and paint
damage from leaking brake fluid.
Rinse off any leaking brake fluid immediately using
plenty of water.

IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL
This notice applies to your vehicle: ,
NHTSA: 21V569
Subject: Safety Recall 47R1 – Brake Pressure Unit
Dear Audi Owner,
This notice is sent to you in accordance with the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act.
Audi has decided that a defect, which relates to motor vehicle safety, exists in certain 2020-2021
model year Audi vehicles. Our records show that you are the owner of a vehicle affected by this
action.
What is the issue? The rotor and the shaft of the integrated brake system may not have
been welded to specifications. During a hard braking maneuver, the ABS
hydraulic control unit rotor and shaft could separate, which could lead to
a reduction in braking assistance (brake boost) as well as a loss of
Antilock Brake System (ABS) functionality and Electronic Stability Control
(ESC). Full mechanical braking is still available. During a hard braking
maneuver, a reduction in brake assistance (brake boost) could lead to an
extended stopping distance. In combination with a loss of ABS and ESC
functionalities, this could increase the risk of a crash.
What will we do? To correct this defect, your authorized Audi dealer will replace the brake
pressure unit. This work will take about four hours to complete and will
be performed for you free of charge. Please keep in mind that your
dealer may need additional time for the preparation of the repair, as well
as to accommodate their daily workshop schedule.
What should you do? Please contact your authorized Audi dealer without delay to schedule
this recall repair. For your convenience, you can also visit
www.audiusa.com and click on the “Find a Dealer” link to locate a dealer
near you and schedule this service.
Precautions you
should take
A failure of the brake booster will be indicated by a warning message in
the vehicle’s instrument cluster. Should this occur, customers are
advised to contact their authorized Audi dealer without delay and make
arrangements to have the vehicle serviced.
Lease vehicles and
address changes
If you are the lessor and registered owner of the vehicle identified in this
action, the law requires you to forward this letter immediately via firstclass
mail to the lessee within ten (10) days of receipt. If you have
changed your address or sold the vehicle, please fill out the enclosed
prepaid Owner Reply card and mail it to us so we can update our
records.

<CIUDAD, ESTADO Y CÓDIGO POSTAL DEL CLIENTE>
Este aviso se aplica a su vehículo: <LÍNEA>,
Administración Nacional de Seguridad del Tráfico en las Carreteras (NHTSA): 21V569
Asunto: Llamado a revisión por seguridad 47R1 – Unidad de presión de los frenos
Estimado propietario de un Audi:
Le enviamos este aviso de conformidad con la Ley Nacional de Seguridad del Tráfico y
Vehículos Motorizados. Audi determinó que hay un defecto relacionado con la seguridad de los
vehículos motorizados en ciertos vehículos Audi modelo 2020-2021. Nuestros registros muestran
que usted es propietario de un vehículo afectado por esta acción.
¿Cuál es el
problema?
El rotor y el eje del sistema de frenado integrado probablemente no se
hayan soldado según las especificaciones. Durante una maniobra de
frenado repentino, el rotor y el eje de la unidad de control hidráulico del
ABS podrían separarse, lo que podría provocar una reducción en la
asistencia de frenado (servofreno), así como una pérdida de la
funcionalidad del sistema de frenos antibloqueo (ABS) y del control
electrónico de estabilidad (ESC). Aún está disponible el frenado
mecánico total. Durante una maniobra de frenado repentino, al reducirse
la asistencia de frenado (servofreno) la distancia a la que el vehículo se
detiene podría aumentar. En combinación con una pérdida de las
funcionalidades del ABS y del ESC, esto podría aumentar el riesgo de
un choque.
¿Qué vamos a
hacer?
Para corregir este defecto, su concesionaria autorizada Audi
reemplazará la unidad de presión de los frenos. Este trabajo tardará
unas cuatro horas y se realizará de forma gratuita. Tenga en cuenta que
su concesionaria puede necesitar más tiempo para preparar la
reparación, así como para adaptar el cronograma diario del taller.
¿Qué debe hacer
usted?
Comuníquese de inmediato con su concesionaria autorizada Audi para
programar esta reparación por llamado a revisión. Para su comodidad,
también puede visitar www.audiusa.com y hacer clic en el enlace
“Buscar una concesionaria” para ubicar una concesionaria cerca de
usted y programar este servicio.
¿Qué precauciones
debe tomar?
Una falla del servofreno se indicará mediante un mensaje de advertencia
en el grupo de instrumentos del vehículo. Si esto llega a ocurrir, se
recomienda a los clientes que se comuniquen con su concesionaria Audi
autorizada de inmediato para programar el servicio del vehículo.
