Complaint
2000
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: INSTRUMENT PANEL
THE CAR WAS PURCHASED ON MAY OF 2007. THE CARS INSTRUMENT PANEL WAS WORKING FINE WHEN PURCHASED. ALL THE CARS CRITICAL INFORMATION IS DISPLAYED ON THE PANEL. A MONTH AFTER PURCHASED I NOTICED THAT THE PANEL INTERMITTENTLY FAILS. THE CAR WAS RUNNING LOW ON COOLANT BUT SINCE I COULD NOT READ THE DEPLOY I HAD NO IDEA UNTIL THE CAR OVERHEATED AND THE WATER PUMP BLEW. THE REPAIR ALONE COST ME $800.00. MECHANIC STATED THAT THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER SHOULD HAVE DISPLAYED THAT THE COOLANT WAS LOW. SO I ALSO BELIEVE THIS WOULD BE DANGEROUS BECAUSE ALL WARNING INFORMATION IS DISPLAYED ON THE CLUSTER; BRAKES, TEMPERATURE AND OIL. *TR

STEERING
THE CAR'S STEERING IS EXTREMELY NOTCHY AND SKIPS OVER THE CENTER ENTIRELY. IT BECOMES EASY AND HARD AND WHIPS BACK SOMETIMES. IT CAUSES YOU TO SWERVE IN TRAFFIC AND IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. I HAVE CONTACTED AUDI OF AMERICA AND MY DEALER SEVERAL TIMES AND THEY ARE AWARE OF THE ISSUE, BUT THEY DO NOT HAVE A FIX FOR IT. *TR
