Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Audi is recalling certain 2015–2017 model year vehicles, including the Q3, TT, A3, A4, and Q7, because their side marker lights may not illuminate when the parking lights or headlights are on. When these lights do not work, the vehicles are less visible at night, which increases the risk of a crash. The recalled vehicles were inadvertently programmed with software that disabled the side marker lights in conjunction with the parking lights or headlights, causing them to fail to meet federal safety standards.
Audi will notify owners of affected vehicles, and dealers will upload corrected software to fix the issue at no cost. The recall began in November 2016. Affected consumers should contact Audi customer service at 1-800-253-2834, and can reference Volkswagen recall number 97CB.
