Service Brakes problem #1

Audi brake guard activated spontaneously because the car sensed an impending impact with a vehicle in front of me. However, there was no vehicle in front of me, but the brake guard applied strong braking action on an open road, bringing me to an immediate stop. Had there been a car behind me, it would have likely hit my vehicle, since I came to a sudden stop on an unobstructed roadway for no reason.

Brake Drum Wheel Cylinder problem #2

The brakes are grabby and with a gentle depression of the brake pedal the car comes to a sudden jerky stop. Usually happens from slowing down from 10mph to 0mph the transmission jerks hard when speed drops from 15mph the engine erroneously shows check engine light during normal driving. Cylinders show oil leakage repeatedly. This has become a repeat issue and have asked the dealer / service center to report this as a manufacturing issue.
