Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Extreme vibrations are occurring while vehicle is stopped and in gear. This problem has existed since I drove it off the lot new. It now has only 8000 miles. The vibration levels vary and can fluctuate. When vibrations are high the vibration is nauseating, tingles my ears, and rattles my teeth. My keys vibrate enough to produce sound and they appear blurry. My local Audi dealer says there is nothing they can do about it currently, but suggest there may be future remedies. They did tighten my seat and say that my car is operating within specifications. …”
