This is in regards to your investigation into a recall for Audi 2015 A3 fuel system issues. My car was repaired as part of that initial recall, however, i am experiencing a bunch of fuel related issues as of now. My fuel tank will no longer fill with gas. The dealership said i need a need fuel tank. Then at the exact same time, my low side fuel pump failed. I mentioned to the dealership about the recall and the fuel problems, they told me they were not related. I paid to replace the lower said fuel pump. Now a few months later my high side fuel pump has failed. I then found the article about the investigation about fuel issues, they told me again it was not related. So now they are asking me to replace the high side fuel pump. I told them it was not a coincidence that both fuel pumps and my gas tank all fail at the same time along with the investigation. They again told me its not related. I opened up a case with Audi of America and they are investigating. Having issues with the fuel delivery system will cause the car to sudden stop and stall at high rates of speed, and has caused me to break down in the middle of the road with no warning.

Vehicle is not taking fuel, there is early stopping of the fuel nozzle and there is significant fuel spillback. Fuel would go in for 2 seconds and the fuel nozzle shuts off. I was trying to refill and then there was spillback of fuel that propelled all over my body and all over the floor of the gas station. I had taken my vehicle to a licensed repair shop who thought it might be a carbon canister which I got replaced. I tried to refuel after the maintenance and the problem persisted. My vehicle once again could not refuel, after sitting at a gas station for 10 minutes I was calling my Husband, all of the sudden what little fuel was left in the tank shot back out and spilled all over the gas station floor and side of my car. I took my car to the licensed repair facility who then called my warranty company and they had adjuster come out as the repair facility tried to refuel my car, and it would not refuel and adjuster took videos of the fuel spilling back out. The warranty would not cover my vehicle because they say it is EVAP and they found a safety recall that matches the symptoms NHTSA: 16V647 for 2015 Audi A3 Sedans. Mine is a 2015 Audi A3 Sedan but for some reason this is not covered according to my VIN #
