STEERING
2009 AUDI A4 AVANT WITH 28000 MILES ON IT WHEN THE STEERING BECAME HARD TO STEER AT LOW SPEED. I DROVE IT TO THE AUDI DEALER 315 MILES FROM MY HOME. TOLD THAT THE STEERING SHAFT HAD "SEIZED" AND THE PART WAS ON BACK ORDER. MIGHT TAKE TWO WEEKS OR MORE TO REPAIR. I WAS GIVEN A FREE RENTAL AND TOLD THAT THEY WOULD BE IN TOUCH WHEN REPAIRED.

COMBINED WITH THE ALREADY COURT MANDATED RECALL OF 2002-2006 AUDI 1.8T ENGINES. I HAVE NEARLY BEEN IN THREE ACCIDENTS FROM MY CAR VIOLENTLY SHAKING TO AUDI MOST RECENTLY RUSHING TO REPLACE MY COMPLETE ENGINE AT 36,000 MILES TO AVOID A 15DAY CLAUSE IN CALIFORNIA TO CLASSIFY A VEHICLE AS A LEMON THIS CAR HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP FOR MORE 46+ DAYS DUE TO THE SAME ISSUE AS DESCRIBED IN THE SERVICE BULLETIN LINK BELOW.

AT 25,055 MILES, ON NOVEMBER 26, 2012, THE AUDI A4 BEGAN EXPERIENCING SEVERE ENGINE PROBLEMS THAT CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO VIOLENTLY SHAKE COUPLED WITH A FLASHING CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND EPC LIGHT. THIS LEFT THE VEHICLE IN A DEBILITATED STATE. AFTER 4 DAYS AT THE DEALER, THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO CONCLUDE THE EXACT CAUSE OF THE VIOLENT SHAKING BUT INSTEAD MADE WHAT SEEMED LIKE MAKESHIFT REPAIRS TO THE CYLINDERS, INJECTION, AND INTAKE MANIFOLD.
