Audi A6: Visual System
Affects Audi A6 · 2001 — about 184 vehicles.
The hazard
On certain Audi A6 Allroad, activating the windshield wiper under heavy load conditions such as freezing, snow or heavy rain, one wiper could be delayed behind the other wiper. If that happens, the wiper blades, because they overlap wiping areas, could become entangled with each other and cease functioning. This could impair the driver's visibility. Correction: Dealers will replace the entire driver side wiper arm.
