“Pursuant to NHTSA recall 18v427 and 18v082 I am having a very hard time getting the necessary repairs done to my vehicle. I called sonnen Audi in san rafael, ca last year and they were not prepared to repair the takata recalls. Later this year in february I called again. I was scheduled for a repair on may 28. I drove 40 miles to get the scheduled repair and they didn't have the parts. They could not tell me when I could get my repair. …”
NHTSA complaint #11210863, filed 2019-05, 40 miles“My 2007 Audi rs-4 quattro sedan had a brake malfunction of some sort that caused the front wheels to lock even while the esp system was active and ABS was in proper working order and the vehicle displayed no warnings on the info display. The vehicle crashed into a guardrail while we were doing 40mph because it wouldn't turn in the curve at the bottom of the hill we were descending, a few times that day the car had a vibration go through it almost as though a tire was bad or a brake was dragging, with a slight burning smell to accompany it. …”
NHTSA complaint #10220525, filed 2008-03, 13,000 miles“Do to a recall, I had my 2007 Audi S4 cabriolet front two airbags replaced. Airbag light came on immediately after replacement. I have been told I will need to pay for a new seat belt assembly ordered direct from germany for $1172.00 usd. (not including install fee) please advise.”
NHTSA complaint #11271708, filed 2019-10“Takata recall issue has not been fixed by the dealership. They said they don't have parts available and will call me when they become available. When I asked if they provide a loaner vehicle until repair is performed, they said they don't have a loaner program available either.”
NHTSA complaint #10980159, filed 2017-04“My airbags were never replaced by Audi. I took my vehicle in for an oil change and to fix the recall I received in the mail (airbags) and was told they had none in stock. Why is this telling me I have no recalls when I still do? The only way that my vehicle has no recalls is if Audi said they fixed it and that’s not true. Nobody has fixed it nor have they notified me that they’re back in stock! The Audi dealership I have dealt with since owning this s4 is the one in fife Washington. Now my airbag warning light is on and I do not feel safe but I have no choice. …”
