2025 Audi Q8 — reported problems

What the records are about, by source

Each source is kept separate: owner complaints, recalls, manufacturer communications and investigations are different kinds of record and are never added together. All model years.

• Owner complaints (398 records, model years 2019–2025) are most frequently classified under: electrical system, powertrain (transmission & drivetrain) and engine.
• Manufacturer communications (9,539 records, model years 2019–2026) are most frequently classified under: electrical system, equipment & accessories and body & structure.

"Most frequently classified under" reports how the records are filed by the source. It is not a finding about causes, and a record can be filed under more than one system. Read the individual records
