“The car had automatically shut off several times. This past time (which is why I'm reporting it) I was driving to my office that is less than 1.5 miles from house and I was going through a 4 way intersection and the car completed shut off, steering wheel locked , brake and accelerator pedals locked. It took several minutes for me to get the car started again.and I almost got hit from oncoming vehicles. It is a brand new car with 6,000 miles on it. I had it towed to Audi dealership because I was not comfortable driving the vehicle. …”
