general problems of the 2014 Audi A4

Car is feeling jerky and shaky at the steering wheel when driving or sitting still. Very common problem on these cars. Will probably need new steering rack. This issue needs to become a recall. Very frustrating.

Steering wheel doesn’t want stay center. Kicks left or right, in a kind of ‘notchy’ way. Almost feels like it wants to click from side to side and won’t stay centered. Vehicle was recently aligned and utilizes all oem parts.

Vehicle all of a sudden had a warning light with the steering while driving and wheel stopped turning. This was very dangerous due to the fact that the vehicle was in motion eventually started turning back after I stopped the car and put on hazards and kept playing with steering but was still very difficult to steer. Had to tow vehicle to Audi and took a week and a few days with the car. Now after I got it for only a few days my oil sensor has gone bad after I asked them to check everything. I find this very strange.

Vehicle can suddenly and without warning become very difficult to steer. Sometimes it is nearly impossible to turn. Other times it alternates between loose and stiff, making it extremely dangerous. I have had many near-collisions in this state.

I bought this 2014 Audi A4 used in 1/2019. The car seems to have major steering and suspension issues. Although I've had it checked by professionals multiple times,?aligned multiple times, and tires rebalanced multiple, no one can determine the problem. It's hard to control the car on freeways. Sometimes it seems impossible to keep the car in a straight line. The car wanders all over the freeway. It's very dangerous. Unfortunately I'm unable to sue using the lemon law because I bought it used.

The steering wheel got a little stiff, but the I was able to keep driving. The next day, about half a mile from my house the same light turned red while I was driving at 35 mph. The steering wheel became really hard to move, almost impossible to turn to either side. Contacted Audi and they said to take the car to the dealer.

My A4 constantly pulls to the right. I have replaced the tires, the rotors and brakes, and had Audi do an alignment. The vehicle still pulls to the right.

Over the course of the last 3-month to current. Sometime, the steering wheel becomes loose while driving (easily moves no response), like it is un-aware of where the front tires are or the steering disengages with the car, then it catches and turns into the lane and realizes the position of the steering wheel. I believe this is called "notchy. " on-going, from day to day.

Our brand new a-4 has a steering problem on the highway. It requires constant corrections to keep it going in a straight line. It has caused me to drift into other lanes and the berm. We had an a-6 that was so easy to drive,then an a-3 that is so fun to drive,but we have nothing but regrets after buying this a-4.

After picking up my new A4 and reaching highway speed, I noticed the steering was wanting to wander. After getting home I went online and read other owners same complaints on this web page. I drove the car again yesterday and noticed the Audi drive select feature was mainly causing the problem. If I selected the dynamic or sport mode it would started to wander off. In the other two modes it seemed to be pretty normal. This might be ok on the race track where your making turns all the time, but for normal driving it stinks. Audi needs to look into this right away.

This vehicles electromechanical steering system will not hold the vehicle in a straight line. The steering wanders extremely bad when at highway speeds. When making steering corrections the car will continue to travel in the direction of the last correction even when the wheel is returned to dead-center. This issue is amplified if there is any amount of wind/cross winds. The vehicle will literally allow itself be be blown almost into the next lane when holding the wheel straight and at times with strong wind will even do this when compensating by turning the wheel against the push of the wind. It is nearly impossible to hold a line without constant corrections to the steering angle. This issue should be corrected by Audi via a firmware update or some other corrective measure. In my opinion this makes the vehicle very unpredictable and at times very unsafe to travel on the highway with. If the car is hit by a strong cross wind it will drive the car "sideways" into the opposite lane or breakdown lane.

My new 2014 Audi A4 quattro premium plus has a severe and extremely hazardous steering issue where the car drifts left to right and right to left at all speeds but is more pronounced at highway speeds. This car is a hazard to drive.

I bought a new 2014 Audi A4 and noticed imediately, once I hit freeway speeds, the car would not track straight. Once centered in the lane and releasing the steering wheel the car started to drift either left or right in that than 5 seconds. The direction if the drift seems to be dependent on the direct of the last course correction. If I had to turn left to center the car in the lane then it would wander left when the wheel was released, if the last course correction was right then it would wander right. I brought the car into the dealer and they could not find any problems mechaically and it had the lastest software flash. I was told it was performing as designed. The senior technician was well aware of the problem but Audi's tech center could not recommend a fix at this time.
