Do recalls affect what the e-tron GT costs to own?
- No direct cost. A recall is a free remedy: the manufacturer must repair the defect at no charge, so an open or completed recall adds nothing to the 5-year cost of ownership.
- Resale is the one caveat. An unrepaired recall can make a used e-tron GT harder to sell or trade in — a buyer or dealer may want it fixed first — but the fix itself is still free, and completing it removes that friction.
- How our totals treat it. Our 5-year cost-of-ownership totals use market-level depreciation estimates; they are not adjusted per recall campaign. See the honest 5-year cost to own: Audi e-tron GT quattro (electric) cost to own →.
