SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:DISC
TRAVELING AT HIGHWAY SPEED, WEATHER WAS RAINING/SNOWING, WHEN I ATTEMPTED TO APPLY THE BRAKES TO EXIT THE HIGHWAY, THE BRAKES DID NOT SLOW THE CAR AS THEY SHOULD. I PUMPED THE BRAKES SEVERAL TIMES AND WAS ABLE TO SLOW THE CAR FOR THE EXIT RAMP. THIS HAS OCCURRED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS PRIOR AND SINCE, ALL DURING WET CONDITIONS. ON THE 1/22/00 INCIDENT, I WAS ON MY WAY TO THE DEALER TO HAVE A SCHEDULED SERVICE COMPLETED AND MENTIONED THE PROBLEM TO THE SERVICE WRITER. HE ACKNOWLEDGED THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH WET BRAKING IN MY MODEL HOWEVER AUDI HAS NOT AUTHORIZED ANY REPAIRS. HE DID HAVE THE PADS REMOVED AND CLEANED ALONG WITH THE ROTORS. THIS HAS NOT SOLVED THE PROBLEM.
