“2004 Audi S4 convertible - 40k - rear window of convertible top has separated from top - appears to be glue, attachment method failure. Called Audi of america requesting assistance, v. Nice - wanted to initiate conversation / inspection 'at dealer level'. Local dealer looks at it and quote $4350 to replace entire roof. Discussions between Audi of america and dealer apparently ensure where 'level of participation' to assist is discussed. We had previously purchased a new S4 at this dealer in 2000 and tried to purchase S4 convertible from them in 2007. We had owned 10 (ten) vws prior. …”
