Volkswagen Group of America is recalling 6,077 of its 2026 Audi Q3 vehicles because of a software error affecting the sunroof. The incorrect software may allow the sunroof to be closed remotely from a distance that prevents the operator from seeing if someone is in the way. Dealers will update the sunroof control module software and the owner's manual free of charge.
Closing the sunroof without a clear line of sight increases the risk of pinching or injuring occupants who may be in the path of the closing glass. This malfunction fails to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards for power-operated window systems.
Vehicle Identification Numbers (VINs) became searchable on NHTSA.gov on April 7, 2026.
