    VW/Audi Class Action Lawsuit/Settlement for AEB Failures

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Seems Audi has been forced to cover automatic emergency braking(AEB) failures. I have read a number of forum users here having their camera up in the windshield die on them. This is part of the system. Might be worth pursuing some reimbursement.

    The Lawsuit claims that there were defects or deficiencies in the putative class vehicles’ AEB systems that caused the AEB systems to not function and/or not function properly. VWGoA has denied the claims and maintains that the AEB systems in the Settlement Class Vehicles are not defective, function properly, were properly designed, manufactured, marketed and sold, and that no applicable warranties were breached nor any applicable statutes violated. The Court has not decided in favor of either party. Instead, the Lawsuit has been resolved through a Settlement under which the benefits set forth below will be provided.

    Effective on May 15, 2024, VWGoA will extend its New Vehicle Limited Warranties (“NVLW”) applicable to the Settlement Class Vehicles to cover 75% of the cost of a diagnosed and confirmed malfunction or failure of a Settlement Class Vehicle’s AEB system (which was/is a feature of, and/or included in, “Audi Braking Guard,” “Pre Sense Front,” “Audi Pre Sense City,” and/or “Turn assist,” depending upon the year and model of the vehicle) that resulted from malfunction or failure of the AEB system’s control unit, camera(s), radar, LIDAR, and/or sensor(s) which enable AEB functionality, by an authorized Audi dealer,

    It should all be from the same Atty group. They are the Class Rep. Any additional attorneys claiming to rep for the Class are likely scamming you.

    I got my letter today. I wonder if this is the reason why my Audi dealer has been saying that my camera is on back order for over six months now. I have no cruise control without it :(

    My camera hasn't worked in over 6 months. I got my letter last week, just before a rock cracked my windshield. Of course, without a working camera, I can't get the windshield replaced through my insurance, so it looks like I'm out $500+ for a new one. Infuriating.
