Recall campaigns

A recall campaign is a manufacturer recall notice that may cover a group of vehicles.

Recall notices for Audi A3 are sourced from NHTSA and matched only by year, make, and model, not by exact VIN.

These notices cannot tell you whether this exact vehicle is included or already repaired. Use the official VIN check linked from your factory sheet.
