1 Mechanical Jack problem of the 1998 Audi A8

Failure Date: 11/07/2006

Tire jack supplied by Audi USA for the Audi A8 is very dangerous. It is manufactured out of cheap aluminum and is not rugged enough to lift the car even on flat pavement. The jack bent under the weight of the car and has the potential to hurt someone.

2 Mechanical Jack problem of the 1997 Audi A8

Failure Date: 01/01/2006

My 1997 Audi A8 is equipped with a vehicle jack that is grossly inadequate for changing a tire and is hazardous to anyone using it-- it is prone to collapse. Many users of this jack have experienced collapse, and Audi does not care to do anything about it.
