Open the full vehicle complaint log (all categories)While normal driving the screen infotainment system or MMI turns off and takes a few minutes to come back up. When it comes back up it does not remember the user and asks for a PIN code. This is very disruptive as it happens while driving and is not safe to drive while it is rebooting It also happens randomly and there is no pattern to it , can happen once or twice or not happen for a given drive period

Recall for battery potentially causing fires issued in November 2024 has not been resolved.
There is an active recall. I went to the dealer to have it resolved. I was told there is no fix and not sure when there will be a resolution. That is unacceptable in my opinion. Especially when it pertains to the battery and there is a heightened risk for fire. I am reliant on having a vehicle to get to work. This concerns me deeply and should be fixed or considered a lemon based on no resolution.
Recall for battery potentially causing fires issued in July 2025 (25V080) and September 2025 (24V898 / 25V080) have not been resolved. No fix is currently available and no availability estimate has been provided. This delay and lack of fix availability are unacceptable. Furthermore, ability to use battery charger in July 2025 per manufacturer's recall letter has now been changed in the September 2025 recall letter to instruct owners not to charge the vehicle from external sources.

I want to report a very serious problem I had yesterday with my Audi Q5e 2024 with 5,000 miles as I’m coming home on the freeway during rush hour my car started slowing down and then came to a dead stop in the middle of the freeway not to mention the car was frozen and would not move I’m scared to drive this car at this point and lucky I was not hit from behind and killed, the vehicle had to be flat bed towed to Fletcher Jones Audi Costa Mesa after sitting on the freeway scared to death waiting for a tow truck. This must to corrected by Audi as I have never had a vehicle lock up and will not move all by its self.
The dash board lights all came on, windows rolled down, car could not be controlled and couldn’t put the gear in park. After further research on the internet, I found that there was a recall on 288,000 Q 5s in 2021 because of this issue. Dealer said the “gateway system” that controls all the communication died and they had to replace it. I think the 2021 issue is not completely resolved.
