An Audi e-tron class action lawsuit filed in Canada includes:
“All persons who purchased and/or leased an Audi e-tron vehicle manufactured,distributed, supplied, wholesaled and/or imported by Audi.”
In September 2023, the plaintiff leased a 2023 Audi Q4 e-tron which allegedly has serious safety and manufacturing defects. She asserts she “clearly overpaid” for her Audi e-tron which “is a lemon.”
The class action says her Audi e-tron battery doesn’t function normally which causes a supposedly long-range vehicle to a short-range city vehicle. The plaintiff also claims her Audi doesn’t start correctly.
According to the lawsuit:
“When trying to charge her Q4 e-tron, the Audi mobile application will often indicate that it takes more than 30 hours for a full battery charge, which is absurd and never disclosed by Audi (and contrary to what Audi promised and advertised when marketing the e-tron).”
The plaintiff asserts she often charges her Audi e-tron overnight just for the battery to gain a few kilometers. This means she must constantly charge her vehicle, something she wasn’t told by Audi when she leased the e-tron.
An Audi Canada dealer supposedly told her they were looking into the problem and other customers were experiencing the same problems with their e-trons. She was also allegedly told there “was no repair timeline in sight for the issues that she and other Class Members are experiencing.”
The class action says the plaintiff has waited more than a year for the Audi e-tron to be repaired, and now she has been told there is no repair and Audi refuses to replace her e-tron.
The Audi e-tron class action lawsuit was filed in the Superior Court of Québec (Montreal Division): Valerie v. Audi Canada Inc., et al.
The plaintiff is represented by LPC Avocats, and Renno Vathilakis Inc.
