Any s tronic trasmission failure in the new Q3?

I am willing to buy a new Q3 but i am worried about the reliability of the s tronic transmission as I have heard about many cases of mechatronics failure in older models. Is the problem solved in the 2015 model?

Unfortunately, the Q3 sold in the US and Canada is Tiptronics...

Mexico has S-tronic transmissions. No problems that I've heard of.
