general problems of the 2008 Audi A6

The exterior lights go out while driving. This has occurred on all four sides of my vehicle and the passenger front side twice. This is a known problem. The voltage is too high/hot for the the cheap wires Audi used in the their assembly light housing that the wires protective coating is literally burned/melted off exposing the wires. This then leads to the lights and computer chips to go out, and fires to occur in vehicles. There are many reports on the internet reporting this and Audi is aware but refuses to do anything about it three mechanics that I sent my car to also said they see this a lot in Audi vehicles. I was in two near accidents because the tail lights went out while driving and the other car did not see my turn signal or my brake light in the other incident. Some one is going to be hurt by this problem if they haven't already. I have almost twice. I have contacted Audi all five times this has occurred to me but they refuse to cover or assist in this known problem and they then charge over $1200 for each light to be repaired not including labor! I did get one of the rear lights covered but that was because the car was still under warranty.

The head light would work sometimes and others it would not took vehicle the dealer was told must remove bumper and replace head lamp assembly complete the cost would be around $ 800. 00after researching specific problem head lamp was replaceable without bumper removal and without headlamp assembly replacement cost 100. 00 price of bulb. Audi of America should be able to troubleshoot this problem very easy and they are purposely trying to rip the customer off. Not to mention the danger a intermittent head light posses on the road dip head light error.
