Rear Suspension Coil Springs Problems of Audi A4

The coil springs broke on this vehicle on 2 separate occasions. The left front coil spring broke while it was being driven by my husband on 7/24/19. The left rear coil spring broke while I was turning out of my driveway on 4/21/20. The vehicle has over 81,000 miles, but is in very good condition. I am careful to avoid pot holes while driving, so I don't believe the cause is due to my driving habits. The photo I have provided shows the break is not due to rust. This has never happened with any vehicle that I have driven in the 50+ years I have been driving . My understanding is that a broken coil spring is very dangerous and can cause an accident particularly if it punctures a tire while driving. My suspicion is that the coil springs are defective given that the breaks occurred with 2 different coil springs. Since this has happened twice, I chose to replace all the coil springs in the car because I fear for my safety. I understand that volkswagon, of which Audi is a part of, recalled over 56,000 vehicles last year due to defective coil springs. However, I cannot find any information regarding a recall for Audi coil springs.

Rear coil springs failed at 114000 miles- cracked in half, fronts probably next. Vehicle's life has been in the northeast subject to heavy use of road salt; seems spring composition similar to the brake rotors and coil springs on Ford products that prompted a similar recall. An issue like this isn't expected from Audi, and is disappointing.
