2006 AUDI A4 Complaints

TAKATA RECALL, HAVE CONTACTED DEALER TO REMEDY SAFETY ISSUE AND UNDERSTAND THERE IS NO CURRENT SOLUTION OR ANYTHING BEING DONE ABOUT A MAJOR RECALL TO THE SUPPLEMENT RESTRAINT SYSTEMS FITTED IN MY VEHICLE. MANUFACTURER HAS NO FUTURE DATE FOR SAFETY CONCERN BEING RESOLVED. I FEEL UNSAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE. TRANSMISSION FAILURE AT HIGH MILEAGE DUE TO TORQUE CONVERTER SEAL FAILURE AND VOLTAGE SPIKE TO SOLENOID 3 CAUSING TRANSMISSION TEMPERATURES TO RISE AND RESULT IN PREMATURE FAILURE OF ZF 6HP19A TRANSMISSION. HAVE CONTACTED MANUFACTURER AND ZAHNRADFABRIK FRIEDRICHSHAFEN AG TO REPORT PREMATURE FAILURE OF TRANSMISSION, HAVE NOT HEARD BACK. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION WHEN FAILURE OCCURRED CAUSING SUDDEN SPEED DROP ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY, NO INJURIES REPORTED BUT ACCIDENT PRONE.

TAKATA RECALL. TAKATA RECALL. I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR OVER A YEAR AND THERE IS STILL NO INFORMATION ABOUT A FIX FOR MY 2006 AUDI A4. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT THIS AS IT SEEMS IT IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE.

"TAKATA RECALL" STILL WAITING TO GET APPROVED TO HAVE THE AIRBAG REPLACED. AUDI DEALER SAYS THERE IS STILL NO RESOLUTION. MY CAR IS GETTING OLD (2006). WANT TO GET IT REPLACED BEFORE IT EXPLODES OR IF THERE SHOULD BE AN ACCIDENT.

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 AUDI A4. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V032000 (AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. HOFFMAN AUDI IN EAST HARTFORD, CONNECTICUT WAS MADE AWARE OF THE RECALL AND STATED THAT THE PARTS WERE UNAVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

TAKATA RECALL. HAVE ASKED MY DEALER TO FIX AIRBAG BUT THEY KEEP SAYING THERE IS NOT A REMEDY FOR THIS YET. WOULD LIKE TO GET AIRBAG FIXED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

THE LEFT HEADLIGHT FLICKERS AND TURNS OFF. CHANGING THE BULB DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM AND NEITHER DID CHANGING THE BALLAST. I FOUND THAT THERE WAS A SETTLED CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT HOWEVER THEY SAID THAT THE LAWSUIT EXTENDED THE WARRANTY FOR HEADLIGHTS TO 5 YEARS. THE LAWSUIT WAS SETTLED IN 2013 AND MY CAR IS A 2006 MODEL SO I AM NOT SURE HOW IT COULD EVER HELP ME.

2006 AUDI A4 QUATTRO, A VERY ANNOYING SITUATION IT ALSO AFFECTS SAFETY WHILE DRIVING IN DARK; I IGNORED IT FOR FEW MONTHS AS IT GOT WORST DECIDED TO TAKE IT IN. THEY SUGGESTED TO REPLACE BOTH IGNITERS (XENON BALLAST) AND BULBS. MY AUDI DEALER SAID THAT AUDI KNOWS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM BUT DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO FIX IT -- CHANGING THE LIGHT BULB DOESN'T SOLVE THE PROBLEM. SINCE MY CAR WAS JUST OUT OF WARRANTY IT WOULD BE ABOUT $1600. THIS PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT. IT HAS BEEN OCCURRING A LOT RECENTLY WITH THE COLD WEATHER. I CAN'T TELL FOR SURE WHETHER IT IS TEMPERATURE RELATED. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AND MOST IMPORTANTLY A MAJOR SAFETY
