AUDI Complaints

THE AUDI DRIVE SELECT SYSTEM MALFUNCTIONED FOR MULTIPLE HOURS. DURING THIS TIME THE VEHICLE'S AIR SUSPENSION SET ITSELF TO THE LOWEST POSSIBLE SETTING (LOWER THAN THE DRIVE SELECT MODES ALLOW) FOR THIS DURATION. THE AUDI DRIVE SELECT SYSTEM DISPLAYED A SCREEN THAT WAS BLANK WITHOUT ANY SELECTABLE OPTIONS. THE AUDI DRIVE SELECT SYSTEM WAS UNRESPONSIVE TO PUSHING THE PHYSICAL BUTTONS ON THE CONSOLE WHEN TRYING TO SELECT THE AUDI DRIVE SELECT MODE. WHEN I STOPPED THE VEHICLE AND TRIED TO RESET IT, MULTIPLE UNRELATED ERRORS OCCURRED. THESE INCLUDE BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO "PREDICTIVE EFFICIENCY: ASSIST UNAVAILABLE", "REAR CROSS TRAFFIC ASSIST: CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE", "ALL WHEEL DRIVE MALFUNCTION! LIMITED STABILITY", AMONG OTHERS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 AUDI A7. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO RESPOND WHILE DEPRESSING THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL, WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT SPOKE TO THE MANUFACTURER AND WAS REFERRED TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER TO HAVE THE VEHICLE SERVICED. THE CONTACT DROVE THE VEHICLE TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE HE WAS INFORMED THAT THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER WAS DEFECTIVE. THE MECHANIC WAS UNABLE TO PROVIDE THE REPAIR FOR A LACK PARTS TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER NOTIFIED THE CONTACT THAT THE VEHICLE NEEDED TO BE TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED AUDI DEALER FOR SERVICE. THE MANUFACTURER DECLINED TO PAY FOR THE REPAIRS TO THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE NEAREST DEALER WAS NEARLY TWO HOURS AWAY AND THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT ABLE TO BE SERVICED AT THE TIME. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 75,338.*BF*JB

I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE WITH A GOOD PRICE. THE CAR ITSELF RUNS PRETTY GOOD BUT HAVE FOUND OUT THAT IT BURNS OIL AND IT IS FACTORY PROBLEM. I HAVE DONE SOME RESEARCH AND IT AUDI HAS THIS KIND OF PROBLEM. HIGH OIL CONSUMPTION IT CONSUMES 1 QT EVERY 200 MILES.

COOLANT RESERVOIR WAS REALLY LOW. FILLED IT RIGHT AWAY BUT IT WENT LOW AGAIN A MONTH AFTER. CONFIRMED FROM OTHER OWNERS EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE.

FRONT BRAKES HAVE ISSUES FROM THE BEGINNING WITH BRAND NEW TIRES FROM THE DEALER. DEALER CHANGED ALL TIRES WITH BRAND NEW TIRES AGAIN AND BRAKE PADS FOR FRONT BRAKES SIX MONTHS AGO. VEHICLE MAKES NOISE WHEN I PUSH BRAKE. VEHICLE IS NOW WITH THE DEALER AND THEY ARE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT. THIS IS NOT AT ALL ACCEPTABLE BEING A $80K VEHICLE. AUDI SHOULD DISCONTINUE THESE DEFECTIVE VEHICLES AND REFUND THE MONEY. THIS IS ALSO A ROAD HAZARD AND RISKY ISSUE TO DRIVE. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE.

THE VEHICLE EXHIBITS "NOTCHY" STEERING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS, PARTICULARLY IN COLD WEATHER. AT OR ABOVE APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH, THE STEERING WHEEL TRIES TO "BOUNCE" LEFT AND RIGHT RATHER THAN MAINTAINING CENTER--EVEN WHEN TRAVELING ON A STRAIGHT, FRESHLY-PAVED SECTION OF INTERSTATE. THE DRIVER HAS TO CONSTANTLY ADJUST THE WHEEL TO KEEP THE CAR TRAVELING STRAIGHT. THE STEERING FUNCTIONS NORMALLY OTHERWISE, AND THE PROBLEM DOES NOT MANIFEST ITSELF AT LOW SPEEDS. I BEGAN TO NOTICE THE PROBLEM AROUND AUGUST OF 2020. OTHER OWNERS OF THE SAME VEHICLE HAVE REPORTED SIMILAR PROBLEMS: HTTPS://WWW.AUDIZINE.COM/FORUM/SHOWTHREAD.PHP/690756-NOTCHY-STEERING.

2002 AUDI A4 WITH 370K BURNED A BIT OF OIL WHICH WAS FINE CLEANED THE ENGINE OUT WITH CLEANERS IT SMOKED A BIT WHICH IS NORMAL.. HEADLIGHTS STARTED FLICKERING 'HIDS' SO I PARKED IT. 3 DAYS LATER I GO TO TAKE THE CAR ON A TEST DRIVE AND THE DRIVERS HEADLIGHT LIT ON FIRE ! NOT SURE IF IT WAS A HEADLIGHT ISSUE OR A WIRING ISSUE.. INSURANCE WILL NOT COVER IT.

THIS VEHICLE IS NEEDING A QUART OF OIL EVERY 300-400 MILES. IT'S A 6 YEAR OLD CAR, THERE IS SOMETHING SERIOUSLY WRONG WITH AUDI ENGINE DESIGN. A QUART OF OIL EVERY 300-400 MILES IS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE. SINCE DAY 1 THIS VEHICLE HAS HAD AN OIL CONSUMPTION PROBLEM NOW AT 75K MILES AND THE PROBLEM JUST CONTINUES TO GET WORSE.

APPARENTLY AUDI HAD. ARE ALL FOR THIS CAR BECAUSE OF A BAD CYLINDER STATE FORCED AUDI TO DO A RECALL ON THE CAR I JUST PAYED 7K FOR THIS CAR AND THE CYLINDER IS BAD AUDI DOESN'T WANNA HELP ME UNLESS I PAY BUT IT'S AN ISSUE STRAIGHT FROM AUDI WHICH IS NOT FAIR OF AUDI TO DO THAT TO THEIR CUSTOMERS EVEN IF I DIDN'T BUY THE CAR FROM AUDI IT IS STILL A PROBLEM FROM THEIR END EVEN THE GOVERNMENT FORCED THEM TO DO THE RECALL BUT THE TIME FRAME OF THE RECALL IS OVER NOW AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT I CAN DO DO I JUST LOSE 7K DOWN THE DRAIN

I HAD THE PODS RECALL 19V47400 DONE AND NOTICED ABOUT 2 MONTHS AGO THAT THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON SAYING AUDI PRE SENSE SYSTEM FAULT, AND SAFETY SYSTEM: SYSTEM FAULT, WHERE THE PASSENGER SEAT WILL THINK SOMEONE IS IN IT AND THEN WHEN SOMEONE IS IN IT, THE AIRBAG WILL STAY OFF AND OCCASIONALLY COME ON BUT TURN BACK OFF QUICKLY AFTER, ALL WHILE THE AIRBAG LIGHT AND ERRORS STAY ON THE DASH
