“I have had numerous issues with my 2019 A220. At 92k mi my cylinder head had to be replaced. My check engine light came on and they said there was a cylinder head leak. At 108k miles I had to have it replaced yet again because my car lost power driving uphill when shifting between 4th and 5th gear. Now at 112k mi the check engine light came on and sure enough they need to replace all 4 ignition coils… Additionally, I have issues with my air vents. They will frequently send air out of a section I have turned off (ex. turn air on my upper body and it sends air to my feet instead). …”
