Transmission & drivetrain Vehicle recall #22V225000 · 2022 · 8 vehicles

What's wrong: Volkswagen group of america, Inc. (Audi) is recalling certain 2022 r8 spyder and 2021-2022 r8 coupe vehicles. The gearbox May have an insufficient amount of transmission oil, which can lead to clutch slippage, and in certain driving situations, a transmission oil leak.

Why it matters: Clutch slippage can cause a loss of drive power and increase the risk of a crash. A transmission oil leak in the presence of hot exhaust components can increase the risk of fire.

The fix: Dealers will inspect and correct the transmission oil level, as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed April 22, 2022.
