“I am having a major safety issue with my car and it seems like Audi of america (aoa) does not seem to really care. It all started in aug 2015 and a bunch of fault codes came one. The second time, I believe, was jan 2016 and I was driving on I-95 and suddenly about 5 fault codes showed up while I was driving. I was traveling about 70mph in the middle lane. The car's steering stiffened up and I could not accelerate. Luckily no one was next to me and I was able to pull off to the shoulder. …”
