36 Other Fuel System problem of the 2011 Audi A4

Failure Date: 03/28/2016

2 incidents of total loss of power including steering. Twice in the last year traveling normally at low speed the car ceased to function. Today I was traveling about 25 mph taking a slight right hand curve when the car died. I was almost rear ended. Power was lost and I had great difficulty pulling it off the road. It would barely coast. I restarted the car and it was fine. The first time it happened I thought it was a fluke but now it has happened twice.

37 Other Fuel System problem of the 2005 Audi A4

Failure Date: 11/03/2015

I have already filed a complaint numbered 10785621. The woman on the phone was very helpful. However, I do not feel that the process itself allowed me to give enough information on the problems I'm having with my car, the research that I've done regarding it, and why I think there needs to be an immediate recall. I would like to speak with someone higher up on the chain who can give me additional help with the specific issues that I'm having.

38 Other Fuel System problem of the 2008 Audi A4

Failure Date: 10/21/2015

I have had repeated issues with oil consumption. Oil overconsumption has been the subject of a class action lawsuit for 2009-2011 A4s. For some reason the 2008 was not included in the lawsuit. I have had to top my oil off every 3,000 miles, at a minimum, for the entire life of the vehicle. This has been a safety issue numerous times where I was not close to any facility that sold oil and was forced to drive the car on low oil a long distance in order to top it off. I have also had issues with the headlights being dipped -- also a known problem for this year and model. The headlights go out way inadvance of a normal life expectancy. Audi gives excuses on how it can be fixed (the prices and repairs were inconsistent between the two headlights). One of them they quoted me $1300! when I read the service information they had only replaced a bulb!.

40 Other Fuel System problem of the 2009 Audi A4

Failure Date: 08/01/2014

Two faulty mis fires caused car to misfire and run rough and jolt. Car was towed to the closest Audi dealership for repairs. Subsequently, within the next 9 months, the care again exhibited close to the same symptoms and the car was again towed to the closest Audi dealership. This time, the intake manifold was cracked and was replaced. With a service bulletin out on this vehicle on these exact issues, I was still charged a $250 deductible per incident ($500 total) on my extended warranty to replace both the injectors and the intake manifold. According to the service bulletin, I should not have been charged.

43 Other Fuel System problem of the 2009 Audi A4

Failure Date: 01/26/2014

Recently done oil change with synthetic oil (Audi recommended) which should last for 10,000 miles before another oil change is needed. Unfortunately after a month and half of driving oil levels are showing half of the oil gone. Engine is making noise and lot of co2 being clogged up. Running heavy causes to use lot of fuel. Feels as if engine may get too hot after eating up excess amount of oil.

44 Other Fuel System problem of the 2004 Audi A4

Failure Date: 10/28/2013

I was driving my 2004 Audi A4 (1. 8, convertible) on a local road at approx 30mph, when the accelerator suddenly dropped from under my foot and the car accelerated very rapidly. It felt like the cruise control had come on by itself (the cruise control was completely off at the time). I put the car in neutral and pulled over. When I shut the car off, the gas pedal popped up and felt normal. When I turned the car back on several times, it continued to immediately accelerate all the way with the gas pedal dropping to the floor. The car is now being towed to a mechanic. Had I been in a tighter situation at the time, it could've been ugly.

46 Other Fuel System problem of the 2008 Audi A4

Failure Date: 07/20/2013

Was changing lanes and when trying to accelerate the car would barely move then in an instant went extremely fast. I hit the brakes but the car was rev'd so high and going so fast that I just skidded into traffic. Before the incident we noticed it would do it but the lag wasn't so bad. . . Wasn't until we drove it on the freeway in stop and go traffic that it really became a problem. Very scary to have a car full of kids and not be able to control the acceleration.

Can't star and epc light on.

48 Other Fuel System problem of the 2010 Audi A4

Failure Date: 01/11/2013

Car brought in for misfire condition that resulted in power reduction/hesitation while driving. Dealer detected faulty injector. Replaced injector and engine was still malfunctioning. Dealer then removed cylinder and observed piston ringland damage. Vehicle was starting to exhibit excessive oil consumption problems. Either faulty injector or piston ring defect is suspected to cause damage. Looking into remedies through arbitration or other means as Audi is aware about (I. E. Undersized rings / pistons). I will retain all suspect parts as Audi will not honor under warranty terms and independent shop will be performing repairs, and can be made available for further investigation. Excessive oil consumption is a known issue with Audi USA. The manual states that normal consumption is up to 1 quart for every 1000 miles. Per Audi's recommendations, you will burn 10 quarts of oil before you need an oil change. That engine holds 5 quarts when not leaking it through rings, reducing anti-knock rating of fuel during combustion. I believe this a significant safety hazard as engine seizing could unexpectedly occur due to defective components. I believe a class action lawsuit is inevitable.

49 Other Fuel System problem of the 2010 Audi A4

Failure Date: 11/15/2012

Problem one the car was burning through a quart of expensive oil every 300 miles. Took it in,dropped the engine,changed all pistons,removed crankshaft oil seal,faulty high mount brake light,pressure regulating valve all replaced. Car was accelerating with and without hesitation,but dealer duplicated the occurance and said they fixed. One month later,car smelled like gas and was taking off on it's own brought back dealer could not duplicate. Very bad smell of gas and rapid acceleration -dealer removed engine again replaced all valves,diagnosis purge valve stuck. Suspected injector seal. Replaced 4 injector seals, smell persisted. Replaced intake valve,remove and replace purge valve assembly. Pistons have all been replaced,engine has been completely removed twice, and the transmission is still jumping and the car accelerates by itself. Audi refuses to recignize the problem , I have only 1200 miles left on warranty. I have only had this car 7 months and am afraid to drive but Audi offers no options-I asked for extended warranty on the engine and they said no. I have the car in my posession with the acceleration issue and periodically smells of gas. I drive 3 children to and from .

50 Other Fuel System problem of the 2008 Audi A4

Failure Date: 11/04/2012

After reaching an appropriate speed on a highway, I eased off the gas pedal but the car continued to accelerate. I removed my foot from the gas pedal entirely but the pedal stayed down. I shifted the car into neutral, turned on my hazards and pulled over to the breakdown lane. I got out of my car and checked the still depressed pedal to see if anything was obstructing it and there was nothing. I pulled the pedal up and the engine stopped revving.

51 Other Fuel System problem of the 2003 Audi A4

Failure Date: 06/14/2012

Audi A4 - Audi-USA case number: [xxx]- 7/13/2013 - 3:20 pm spoke with [xxx] about this issue, he transferred me over to another expert - currently music is on and I am on hold till 3:29pm - a lady name, [xxx], who basically told me that this is something they cannot help me with. The call ended at 3:48 pm. Their argument for not reimbursing me for my expense was lame and one of not accepting responsibility, however, legally, they were on the correct side in saying no, as when this issue was identified for the same make and model and year of Audi A4, my car's VIN was not included as one that was affected. They were however, not helpful in considering the fact that, the issue that was identified for some vehicles for the same make model and year, was the exact same issue for my make model and year. Audi, however, let me know that they will not help me with the reimbursement of my expenses. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).

52 Other Fuel System problem of the 2009 Audi A4

Failure Date: 02/20/2012

Since the moment I purchased this vehicle in 2012, I've had nothing but constant issues. This vehicle has stopped in the middle of the street on the freeway (surprised I was not hurt because of this). I've had engine lights on, check oil level lights on, alternator going bad, esp lights on, bearings replacement. You name it, its happened. I took my Audi in for an appraisal and turns out the transmission is going bad, had warranty and Audi services did not mention any issues with my transmission, wasn't until my warranty had expired when I found this out. This vehicle should be recalled.

53 Other Fuel System problem of the 2011 Audi A4

Failure Date: 12/25/2011

Hello. This model of Audi A4 2. 0t 2011 hase a big problem with oil consumption which I think is a thing that the NHTSA needs to look in to. For example : I drive the car 500 miles and the oil light comes up and is asking for 1qt of oil which I think is absolutely not normal . Ive change the oil in October and in 2 months December I use 5qt of oil to refill or to add on because the oil light was turning on . Ive took the car to Audi and did a full inspection to see if I'm losing any oil anywhere and the result was negative. I've herd that my model Audi A4 2. 0t 2011 had a problem with the pistons rings or something like that and because of that he oil consumption was very high. But just on some Audi A4 2. 0t 2011 models not all . I think and I can prove that my care has this issue and needs to be reccal because the oil goes in the environment in the air which is a very big problem for the quality of the oxygen . I'm not saying that only my car but if you google my model you will be shocked of how many people are complaining about the oil consumption on Audi A4 2. 0t 2011.
