2 Body problem of the 2021 Audi A8

Failure Date: 12/03/2021

I was driving in the morning on a November day on a rural road. The rear moon roof exploded outward. The sound was deafening and scared my passenger and I. The center glass exploded outward, scattering glass outside and inside of the car. I believe that if this happened that passengers in the car could be hurt. Other drivers on the highway could be startled on their car damaged by the flying glass. An accident could be induced by the incident either by the drive of my car or by nearby drivers.

4 Body problem of the 2008 Audi A8

Failure Date: 03/22/2013

The 2008 Audi A8l was involved in a rolling rear-end collision while starting to move at a stop sign. Velocity was less than 5 mph. Minor collision with no deployment of airbags and no damage to the car ahead. The A8l drove normally after the collision. Inspection at the body shop revealed stress fracture and bending of the frame. Car was declared a total loss. It is unacceptable that a full size premium sedan should suffer catastrophic failure of the frame at a low speed collision. A high speed collision would have provided no protection to the occupants of the vehicle. Multiple contacts made with Audi USA via ups letter, email, telephone, twitter and facebook. Audi USA refuses to provide any crash test data on the A8 which is very concerning. I request the NHTSA to investigate if this car is safe.
