What NHTSA data shows for Audi

Across the 8 Audi models with enough data to count (model years 1995–2022), NHTSA has 11,350 owner complaints on file and 206 recall campaigns. The most-reported components across the make are electrical system (1,705), air bags (1,502), engine (881). The Audi A4 has the most complaints of any Audi, with 3,659. Data as of 2026-10-12.

Complaint counts rise with how many of a model were sold and how long they've been on the road, so a big number mostly means a common car. The useful part is what fails: when the top complaint is electrical system, read our guide to selling a car that doesn't run before you take an offer.
