AUDI Complaints

THE VEHICLE VIBRATES HEAVILY WHEN THE BRAKES ARE APPLIED AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. NO ACCIDENT HAS OCCURRED BUT IS OF GREAT CONCERN

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 AUDI A3. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE SHIFTED INTO FIRST GEAR WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AUDI TEMECULA (40955 TEMECULA CENTER DR, TEMECULA, CA 92591, (951) 200-8100) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE DPS FILTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED; HOWEVER, THE PARTS TO DO THE REPAIR WERE NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE RECURRED MULTIPLE TIMES. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 190810653. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 69,500.

FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG KEEPS SHUTTING OFF AND ON WHEN WHILE DRIVING AND WITH A PASSENGER SITTING ON THE SEAT. CAR WAS REPAIRED ONCE BEFORE FOR THE SAME ISSUE BUT THE ISSUE KEEPS SHOWING AGAIN. A RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED RECENTLY FOR THIS ISSUE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 AUDI Q5. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE MISFIRED WHILE DRIVING AND THE ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AUDI NYACK (127 NY-59, NYACK, NY 10960, (845) 353-7300) WHERE THE INTAKE COIL AND SPARK PLUGS WERE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED.

ON 12/3/19 OUR CAR WAS TAKEN TO A CERTIFIED AUDI DEALER FOR HAVING THE AIRBAG LIGHT ON INDICATING A SAFETY ISSUE. THE AUDI TECH #293N FOUND THE PASSENGER OCCUPANT DETECTION CONTROL MODULE FAULTY AND OFFERED TO REPLACE THIS PART FOR $1,172.60. THERE IS A RECALL FOR A6 MODEL YEARS, HOWEVER OUR CAR IS NOT INCLUDED, YET OUR PODS CONTROL MODULE HAS FAILED. WE HAVE SPOKEN WITH AUDI SUPPORT AND WAS TOLD CLEARLY THAT OUR VIN NUMBER IS NOT INCLUDED. WE ARE THE ORIGINAL OWNER AND THE CAR IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION FOR A 2014. WE ARE VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF OUR FRONT SEAT PASSENGER IN OUR AUDI A 6 AND HAVE BEEN TOLD BY CUSTOMER SERVICE THAT THIS CAN CAUSE THE AIRBAG TO NOT DEPLOY PROPERLY WHEN IN A COLLISION. AUDI HAS INCORRECTLY CONCLUDED THAT ONLY MODELS WITH BASIC SEATS ARE RECALLED. HOWEVER THIS EXACT PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED WITH OUR VEHICLE. I HAVE ATTACHED A PHOTO OF THE REPAIR BILL ESTIMATE FROM THE DEALER. I AM REQUESTING THAT AUDI INCLUDE ALL 2014 A 6 VEHICLES IN THIS RECALL AND REPAIR OUR CAR DUE TO THIS FAULTY PART. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ASSISTANCE WITH THIS VERY IMPORTANT SAFETY MATTER.

VEHICLE MISFIRES/ STUTTERS RESULTING IN THE VEHICLE SHUTTING OFF. DRIVER HAS TO MANUALLY RESTART CAR. THIS CAN BE HAZARDOUS WHEN DRIVING IN TRAFFIC AS THE VEHICLE WILL SHUT OFF. NOT SURE IF THIS IS A FUEL INJECTION ISSUE. I'VE HAD THIS HAPPEN TWICE WHILE ASCENDING A HILL. I PICKED UP MY NEW CAR ON 10/22/2019, SINCE 11/02/2019, I'VE EXPERIENCED THIS ISSUE 5 TIMES. MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN THE REPAIR SHOP TWICE FOR THIS ISSUE AND CONTINUOUSLY SINCE 11/25/2019. THE CAR IS NOT STORING ANY FAULTS. VEHICLE ALSO RECOGNIZES ROAD REPAIR SEALANT AS A TRAFFIC LANE AND WILL TAKE CONTROL OF THE STEERING. YOU HAVE TO WRESTLE WITH THE STEERING WHEEL TO COMMAND CONTROL OF THE STEERING. LASTLY, WHEN USING THESE AUTO START/STOP FUNCTION, AFTER RELEASING THE BRAKE THE STEERING LOCKS AND YOU HAVE TO WRESTLE FOR CONTROL OF THE WHEEL.

CAR IS MISFIRING MOST OF THE TIME , AFTER TUNE AND CHANGING THE INTAKE AND THE COILS AT THE DEALER. IT ALMOST STOPS

THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO PROPERLY DIAGNOSE. MORE THAN ONE MECHANIC HAS TOLD ME THE CODE P0171 THAT READS AS THE DIAGNOSTIC DOES NOT CORRELATE WITH MY CAR AS MY CAR DOES NOT HAVE A PCV VALVE. THEY HAVE INSPECTED THE CAR TO LOOK FOR SIMILAR ISSUES AND HAVE FOUND NONE. YET THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT REMAINS ILLUMINATED. THERE WAS A RECALL REPORTED 09/30/2009 ON MY TYPE OF CAR UNDER CAMPAIGN 09V377000 BUT MY VIN IS NOT SHOWING AS AFFECTED BY THAT CAMPAIGN EVEN THOUGH THE CODE THAT IS COMING UP IS A SIMILAR ISSUE. I AM EXTREMELY CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF DRIVING MY CAR NOW. I CAN'T NOT REPAIR WHAT I CAN NOT DIAGNOSE. I BELIEVE THAT I AM AFFECTED BY THE RECALL.

MY CAR STARTED TO SMELL LIKE GAS INSIDE, AND IT WAS A VERY STRONG ODOR. I WENT TO AN AUOZONE TO GET A DIAGNOSTIC, IN THE SYSTEM IT HAD SAID IT WAS A VERY SMALL GAS LEAK AND THAT IT WOULD HAVE BEEN OKAY TO DRIVE. I KEPT DRIVING AND IT STILL SMELLED LIKE GASOLINE AND STRONGER EACH TIME. THEREFORE, I TOOK IT TO THE MECHANIC THE NEXT DAY DRIVING IT, AND UNDER THE BACK SEATS WAS FILLED WITH GASOLINE. THE MECHANIC STILL CANT FIND THE LEAK. HOWEVER, IF I WOULD HAVE KEPT DRIVING IT, THE CAR COULD HAVE EXPLODED ON ME.

I NOTICED ROUGH HANDLING AND ROAD NOISE AT 7,000 MILES. I CHECKED THE TIRES AND THEY WERE WORN UNEVENLY. THE DEALER SAID THEY NEEDED TO BE ROTATED AND THAT IT WOULD GO AWAY, BUT IT'S BEEN ANOTHER 9,000 MILES AND IT HASN'T IMPROVED. THE TIRES ARE PIRELLI SCORPION VERDE ALL SEASON RUN FLATS. THEY ARE WEARING HORRIBLY ONLY ON THE INSIDE HALF OF THE TIRES. I HAD A FOUR WHEEL ALIGNMENT DONE, BUT IT HASN'T HELPED THE UNEVEN WEAR. THE WEAR PATTERN IS WAVY, LIKE A ROLLER COASTER. I BELIEVE THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THESE TIRES. THE CAR IS A 2018 AUDI Q7.
