Old Battery replaced by Audi dealer with new battery since car would not start. Second Audi dealer checked battery and connections since car would not start. Car started at dealer; however car doesn’t start now about a week after picked up at dealer. This is a major safety issue and driver & passengers are at risk creating a safety hazard of the car not being Able to start. Southern Calif AAA was called to jump start car battery multiple times in last several months. There was no warning on the car either that of a battery issue or that the car was not going to start.

TAKATA RECALL. I RECEIVED RECALL NOTICE IN JULY 2016 THAT THE PASSENGER AIRBAG NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AND IT IS NOW DECEMBER WITH NO REPLACEMENT AVAILABLE. I CANNOT IN GOOD CONSCIENCE HAVE PASSENGERS IN THE FRONT SEAT FOR FEAR OF INJURY TO THEM SHOULD THERE BE AN ACCIDENT. THIS MEANS I CAN'T USE MY CAR UNLESS I AM THE ONLY OCCUPANT OF THE VEHICLE WHICH SEVERELY LIMITS MY USE OF MY CAR. DO I HAVE ANY RECOURSE AGAINST AUDI?

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), POWER TRAIN
THE CVT TCM HAS BEEN RE-PROGRAMMED BY AUDI DEALER FOR $160 AFTER REBULIT TRANSMISSION FOR $3300. HAD TO TOW A CA FOR $70 TO DEALER JUST TO GET RE-PROGRAMING. TOOK CAR ON HWY AND THE ACCELERATION DIDN'T WORK. HAD TO POOL TO SIDE AND CALLED TOW. FOUND OUT THE TCM HAS TO BE REPLACED AND IT IS VERY COMMON PROBLEM AND AUDI IS CHARGING TOO MUCH OF MONEY. COULD NOT FIND ANY PART FROM ANYWHERE UNLESS AUDI. PLUS, THE TCM IS THE ONE MAKING THE TRANSMISSION BREAK.

PURCHASED A 2009 AUDI A6 AS MY PRIMARY COMMUTER AND FAMILY VEHICLE. AS I WAS ATTEMPTING TO PUT SOME ITEMS IN THE PASSENGER FRONT SEAT, THE DOOR UNEXPECTEDLY CLOSE ON MY ARM AND SCRAPED OFF ABOUT 2.5 INCHES OF MY SKIN AROUND MY RIGHT ELBOW. WHAT WORRIED ME MOST WAS THAT I WAS HOLDING MY DAUGHTER, FORTUNATELY ON MY LEFT SIDE, AND MY DAUGHTER WAS NOT HURT. I ALSO HAVE A SON WHICH IS CURRENTLY I LEVEL WITH THE DOOR TRIM AND AM CONSTANTLY WORRIED EVERY TIME I OPEN AND CLOSE THE DOOR. SOMETHING I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO DO. I HAVE CONTACTED BOTH THE DEALER AND AUDI CORPORATE AND APPARENTLY, THIS IS NOT A BIG ENOUGH ISSUE FOR THEM AT THE MOMENT. ACCORDING TO AUDI, THAT IS THE DESIGN OF THE VEHICLE AND MANY OF THEIR VEHICLES HAVE SIMILAR TRIMS. ALL I REQUESTED WAS FOR THEM TO SOMEHOW INSTALL SOME EXTRA PADDING ON THE TRIM TO GIVE ME PIECE OF MIND AND WAS BASICALLY TOLD TO LIVE WITH IT. MY MAIN CONCERN IS THE SAFETY OF MY CHILDREN. PURCHASING THIS CAR AS MY FAMILY CAR, I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT THEM GETTING HURT EACH TIME THE DOOR OPENS AND CLOSES AND I WANTED TO SHARE THIS INCIDENT TO OTHER AUDI DRIVERS OUT THERE. PLEASE CHECK BOTH YOUR FRONT DOORS CHROME TRIMS AND YOU WILL FIND THAT THE EDGES ARE EXPOSED AND SHARP. *TR
