2020 AUDI A4 Unknown Or Other Problems

2020 Audi A4 went in for service on 2/27. After servicing, car's electrical MMI system started rebooting randomly while driving. When this random reboot occurs, the backup camera, parking collision warning no longer function. On some trips, this occurs as often as 5-6 times while others occur just once. The problem is increasing in frequency. I took it back to the dealer on 4/16 where the only thing they could find via codes was a faulty a/c component. After searching online for a solution, I arrived at several reddit threads with other 2020 audi a4 drivers experiencing similar issues at the end of February. The thread is listed below. [XXX] As mentioned earlier, this lack of system functioning is unsafe as advanced driving features of the car will not work when in a reboot mode. Audi needs to address this issue since this isn't only my car, but appears to...

The MMI (multi-media interface) often restarts unexpectedly while driving, causing the display to go black and disabling essential features like the backup camera, rear sensor alerts, navigation, and hands-free phone connectivity. When this occurs, the system demands user interaction—such as re-entering a PIN (if one is configured) and repeatedly pressing the interface—to restore functionality. These interruptions can be particularly distracting, as they occur without warning and pull the driver’s focus away from the road. In most cases, drivers end up addressing the issue while parked, typically right after turning on the vehicle. This issue started in October-November 2024. This problem raises safety concerns, particularly when the system restarts during reverse parking, temporarily disabling both the rearview camera and obstacle detection sensors until the MMI reloads. Furthermore, these unexpected reboots shut down navigation functions and demand several user interactions to bring the system back online—creating a dangerous distraction while driving. With...

While driving the MMI (infotainment system) spontaneously reboots. The screen goes black, all audio shuts off and proceeds to boot up as if the car had been turned off and turned back on again. This happens multiple times per drive, every day. It can even happen while the car is in reverse and the backup camera is in use which is very dangerous. This appears to be a widespread issue based on the numerous reports found on user forums online, affecting the same model year vehicles (for multiple examples, refer to https://www.audiworld.com/forums/a4-...20-a4-3082501/ ) This started happening full time around Jan/Feb 2025

I information screen keeps rebooting every 15 minuets or so loosing navigation and user settings. Often complains it needs to log in a new user while driving and key not working.

The MMI spontaneously reboots numerous times while driving. When the reboots happen, the screen goes black and key systems such as the backup camera, rear obstacle detection, and navigation, become unavailable until the reboot completes and the systems reload. Restoring functionality requires user input to get through the loading screens. The issue started in February 2025 and the vehicle has been inspected by the Audi dealership (on 3/10.25), who verified the concern and attempted a factory reset (which did not solve the issue), and they continue to claim there's nothing they can do since their OBD scans return no fault codes, even though there are numerous TSBs (filed with NHTSA) that point to available software updates that should be applied to address infotainment-related issues. This appears to be a widespread issue based on the numerous reports found on user forums online, affecting the same model year vehicles (for multiple examples,...

Every 5-20 minutes while the car is on, the infotainment system reboots. This happens with or without a mobile phone plugged in via USB. This affects backup camera and parking sensors because they are not available when the system reboots. There is no warning before the system reboots.

MMI (infotainment), and the dashboard screen will turn off randomly and reboot. This is incredibly dangerous as it turns all sound off, and driving visuals like directions, and freezes or reboots, not where you last had it but from a different check point. Audi dealership said there was nothing they could do , after doing 2 software updates.

This safety issue concerns the MMI system. In my state of MA we cannot use a cell phone while driving. The car's MMI system does not connect to the MMI and hands free calling cannot be done. The dealership and Audi have indicated there is no fix for this. The MMI does not currently have any functionality inclusive of various car warnings.
