2019 A6 failed as well at 72 K miles. This also happened to my neighbor who I regretfully convinced to buy an A6. I know this generator is on recall and this repair should be done for FREE!!! But so far, I have a $3000+ repair bill to look forward to. I was forced to buy a third car this weekend (Porsche Cayenne) since Audi won't provide a loaner car!!!! I loved this car but AUDI needs to step up to the plate and fix this issue I smell a class action law suit on the horizon!! I have owned Audi cars for 15 years but this experience is not what I expect from a luxury car manufacturer. I'm trading in this car for a Subaru as soon as possible!!
Let me know what your model, trim package, manufacture date and mileage are and we'll have more data points.

I experienced a total failure of the electric system in my 2019 A6. Car stopped running in the middle of the road. Had to use the tool in the trunk to manually switch the car to neutral so I could push it off the road. Car was towed to the Audi dealer in my area. They have had it for three weeks and the only think they can tell is that the parts needed (alternator, 48 V battery) are on backorder and they have no idea when they will come in.
Fortunately, the car is under warranty so the loaner is covered but this experience has me thinking I should sell it before the warranty runs out (one more year). Anyone else experience very long delay times with their Audi or is this a one off?

hi bro did you mean you had to replace both the alternator and the 48v battery?

My son has the same car as I do, a 2019 A6 Premium Plus with 3 liter engine. He too had a total failure. Car was under warranty and dealer replaced the alternator and the 48v battery in about a week. In New Orleans, LA.
