Complaint
2003
UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I BOUGHT A 2003 AUDI A4 CONVERTIBLE IN NOVEMBER 2008 AND SINCE THEN THE DEFECTIVE CONVERTIBLE TOP HAS RESULTED IN THE REAR GLASS WINDOW TO BE NEARLY COMPLETELY LOOSE. THIS IS A MAJOR HAZARD AND REPRESENTS A DANGER SINCE THE WINDOW COULD FALL OUT AND HURT OTHER PEOPLE. AUDI OF SANTA MONICA SAID THEY CAN'T/WON'T FIX IT AND REFERRED ME TO AN UPHOLSTERY SHOP WHO SAID THEY HAVE SEEN THIS PROBLEM BEFORE AND CAN'T FIX IT (DESPITE AUDI RECOMMENDING THEM FOR FIXING THIS). A DETAILED CHECK OF NUMEROUS ONLINE DISCUSSION BOARDS (IN THE U.S. AND GERMANY) SHOWS THAT THIS IS AN EXTREMELY COMING PROBLEM FOR 2003 AUDI CONVERTIBLES THAT AUDI SIMPLY REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE. 2003 WAS THE FIRST YEAR THAT KARMANN MANUFACTURE THE ROOF AND, INTERESTINGLY, HARMANN IN GERMANY SEEMS TO ACCEPT SOME RESPONSIBILITY AND HAS FIXED THIS PROBLEM FOR SOME PEOPLE, CHARGING ONLY FOR LABOR. I STRONGLY RECOMMEND THAT NHTSA LOOK INTO THIS FAULTY MANUFACTURING ISSUE AND FORCE AUDI TO ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY FOR IT. *TR

STEERING
WHILE DRIVING MY 2007 AUDI A4 THREE TIMES OVER THE COURSE OF THE LAST MONTH MY CAR HAS DIED WHILE DRIVING. ONCE ON THE HIGHWAY, ONCE ON A LOCAL ROAD, AND A THIRD TIME IN A PARKING LOT. ALL THREE TIMES AUDI CLAIMS THAT "NO ERROR CODE WAS RECORDED" YET THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND ELECTRONICS ERROR LIGHT TURNS ON. BECAUSE THEY CAN'T REPLICATE IT OR SEE AN ERROR THEY ARE REFUSING TO DO ANYTHING TO HELP ME OTHER THAN TEST DRIVE THE CAR. WHAT EVIDENCE DO THEY WANT? WOULD ME IN A BODY BAG AFTER MY CAR QUITS ON THE INTERSTATE AGAIN BE WHAT IT TAKES TO CONVINCE THEM SOMETHING ISN'T WORKING? *TR
