Germany notified the European Union's Safety Gate rapid alert system about a Audi A4, A6 on 25 December 2020. The Commission records the risk level as serious risk, with the hazard recorded as injuries. The vehicle is recorded as originating in Germany. Twenty-seven member states share this system, and an alert raised by one is visible to all of them.

The manufacturer filed this campaign under code 69R7, and that same code appears in the Canadian register as 2018342. One defect, filed once by the manufacturer, recorded separately by each authority that saw it.
The Safety Gate is an alert system, not a recall register: a member state notifies the Commission of a product it considers dangerous, and the alert records that notification. It is not the same administrative act as a national recall, and this page does not treat the two as interchangeable.
Read the alert on the European Commission's own site. This page reproduces the fields the Safety Gate publishes; the Commission's entry is the authority.
Every European alert we hold covers the whole set, and which member states raise most of them. Europe and America sets the European alerts against the American register.
