2007 AUDI A4 Complaints

TAKATA RECALL. I'M DRIVING A 2007 IN THE HOT STATE OF ARIZONA. I CAN'T EVEN GET MY AIRBAGS REPLACED. AFTER SEEING ACCIDENT AFTER ACCIDENT IN OUR TOWN OF PHOENIX I FEEL IT'S NO LONGER SAFE TO EVEN DRIVE MY CAR. WHAT HAPPENS IF I AM IN A MAJOR ACCIDENT AND THE AIR BAGS GO HAYWIRE? WE'VE CALLED ALL THE AUDI DEALERSHIPS AND NO ONE HAS THE PART AND THEY KEEP SAYING TO CALL BACK AND CHECK AGAIN IN A FEW WEEKS. WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO UNTIL THEN?

TAKATA RECALL I CALLED TO SCHEDULE A RECALL REPAIR AT MY LOCAL AUDI DEALERSHIP(FRESNO, CA AUDI/PORSCHE) AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY DIDN'T HAVE THE PART AND THAT THY WERE NOT SURE WHEN A NEW ONE WOULD ARRIVE. SO IT'S BEEN ABOUT 4 WEEKS NOW SINCE I TALKED TO THE AUDI DEALERSHIP AND I'M DRIVING AROUND WITH A FAULTY AIRBAG IN MY CAR, THIS IS A LITTLE SCARY. KNOWING THAT IF I GOT IN A CRASH MY PASSENGER COULD BE SERIOUSLY INJURED OR EVEN DIE. ALL AUDI IS TELLING ME EVERY TIME I TRY TO CALL IS, 'WE STILL DON'T HAVE THE PART, AND WE WILL KEEP YOU PAPERWORK ON OUR DESK AND CALL YOU WHEN IT'S IN'.WELL, I DON'T THINK IT TAKES 4 WEEKS TO GET A AIRBAG PART IN. DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO, BECAUSE AUDI ISN'T WORKING WITH ME, AND I'M CONCERNED FOR MY OCCUPANTS SAFETY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 AUDI A4. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V382000 (AIR BAGS). THE PARTS TO DO THE REPAIR WERE UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE CONTACT CALLED A LOCAL DEALER (CLASSIC AUDI, 655 N MACQUESTEN PKWY, MOUNT VERNON, NY 10552) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE PARTS WERE ON BACKORDER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

TAKATA RECALL-CALLED TO GET MY AIRBAGS REPLACED AND WAS TOLD I WOULD BE CONTACTED WHEN NEW AIRBAGS BECAME AVAILABLE. IT HAS TAKEN MORE THAN A YEAR AND HAVE NOT HAD MY AIRBAGS REPLACED OR HAVE I BEEN NOTIFIED ON WHEN THAT WOULD BE.

TAKATA RECALL: I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE 12 MONTHS AGO CONCERNING A RECALL ON MY TAKATA AIRBAG. ALTHOUGH I'VE CONTACTED THE LOCAL AUDI DEALER REPEATEDLY OVER THE LAST 12 MONTHS THEY CONTINUE TO SAY THAT THERE IS NO "SOLUTION" FOR THIS RECALL YET. I'M NERVOUS EVERY TIME I GET INTO MY CAR AND I BELIEVE THAT PRESSURE NEEDS TO BE BROUGHT TO BEAR AGAINST AUDI TO IMPLEMENT A TIMELY SOLUTION.

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 AUDI A4. THE CONTACT STATED THAT NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V032000 (AIR BAGS) EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR REPAIR. THE CONTACT RECEIVED THE RECALL NOTIFICATION IN MARCH OF 2017. THE DEALER (AUDI MANHATTAN AUDI, 800 11TH AVE, NEW YORK, NY, 10019) STATED THAT THE PARTS WERE UNAVAILABLE FOR THE REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER CONFIRMED THAT THE PARTS WERE UNAVAILABLE FOR REPAIR. THE VIN WAS INVALID. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

TAKATA RECALL - I HAVE TRIED TO SUBMIT MY CAR TO THE DEALER FOR REPLACEMENT SEVERAL TIMES SINCE THE RECALL BEGAN IN 2016, AND AGAIN SINCE RECEIVING THE LATEST NOTIFICATION OF THE BANKRUPTCY BUT THE AIRBAGS ARE NOT AVAILABLE ACCORDING TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY SAY THEY MAY HAVE THEM IN JAN. 2018. WHAT IF THEY DONT GET THEM AT ALL?

TAKATA RECALL I WAS FIRST NOTIFIED ABOUT MY RECALLED AIRBAGS A YEAR AGO. I HAVE CONTACTED MULTIPLE DEALERS ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS, AND AM ALWAYS TOLD THAT A REPAIR IS NOT YET AVAILABLE. THE LAST COMMUNICATION WITH A DEALER WAS TODAY, NOV 11TH 2017. HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO DRIVE A VEHICLE THAT HAS AIRBAGS THAT CAN EJECT METAL FRAGMENTS THAT ARE STATED TO CAUSE SERIOUS INJURIES OR EVEN DEATH!? THEY NEED TO HAVE MORE URGENCY IN THIS RECALL TO AVOID PERSONAL INJURIES OR EVEN UNNECESSARY DEATHS!

AIR BAGS DID NOT WORK IN A ACCIDENT IN 2010. SPEED WAS APPROXIMATELY 25 MPG. ACCIDENT INVOLVED THE RIGHT SIDE FRONT PANEL OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE DID NOT STOP AT A FOUR WAY STOP. RECEIVED RECALL NOTICE BY AUDI MARCH 2017. STILL NO RESOLUTION TO GET AIRBAGS FIXED.

TAKATA RECALL I RECEIVED A NOTICE IN JANUARY OF THE PASSENGER AIRBAG RECALL. THERE STILL IS NO REMEDY AVAILABLE FOR MY CAR. I HAVE NEEDED TO RENT CARS ON OCCASIONS WHEN I NEEDED THE FRONT SEAT AS THE ONLY ADVICE I'VE BEEN GIVEN IS DON'T USE THE FRONT SEAT. IT'S BE 11 MONTHS NOW. CAN I GET SOMETHING DONE ABOUT THIS?
