Volkswagen Group of America is recalling approximately 7,499 Audi vehicles because an incorrectly labeled brake fluid reservoir cap may have been installed during manufacturing. The recall affects several models, including 2021 Audi S7, S6 Sedan, RS7, RS6 Avant, and A6 Allroad, as well as 2019-2021 A7 and A6 Sedan vehicles. Because the cap may be labeled incorrectly, a technician or owner might add the wrong type of brake fluid to the system. Dealers will inspect the brake fluid reservoir cap and replace it with the correct one if necessary, free of charge.
Using the incorrect type of brake fluid can degrade braking performance and significantly reduce the vehicle's ability to stop, increasing the risk of a crash.
