I was driving on the highway, the vehicle epc light came on. Vehicle began to run rough, and shortly after died out completely. Luckily there was no one behind me when the car died, and that I was in the right lane and was able to limp onto the shoulder. Waited for tow truck. Had car towed to dealer where a faulty turbocharger was diagnosed as the reason for vehicle breaking down.

While driving and/or parking and/or putting key in ignition to start my vehicle abs light; stabilization; and speedometer seems as though being hacked. . . Sometimes especially in the summer when temperatures reach 100 degrees + my heater is hacked on and my interior of the vehicle is life threatening hot!!! have to open windows to 100 degrees temperature outside. . . My interior lights just come on and drain my battery. . . . And my sound system flips open and music plays when im in my house and has shut off my car and while driving my sound system comes on and my radio is remotely controlled---hacked because my stations are switched ie. Tuned to different stations and my cds are scrolled through the tracks without my doing so. . . . And my vehicle was hacked for it to speed up when I wasnt accelorating in a walmart parking lot. . . . That could have injured myself or others. . But I hit the brakes and cut my car off in a parking space. . . My speedometer is always being hacked that when I driving at no matter what speed. . . . Its being hacked to read 0 miles and threatens my ability to know my speed and it slows my engine performance. . . My park brake engages and I have to cut car off and this is highly dangerous while im driving. . . . My steering once jerked but I miraculously wasnt in heavy traffic. . I dont know who what or why but when I purchased my vehicle even the dealer boomer did alot of shady things in the service department to my vehicle. . . . . . . . . Please help. . . All the vehicles I buy are being hacked and eventually either recalled or crashed or damned near! or put out of order. . . And every insurance company I get. . . . . My premiums go up without any reason except "its the state insurance commission" where I live changing state rules?.

The brake and gas pedals are too close. I consistently hit the brake while accelerating. They need to be spaced farther apart, and the brake pedal moved to the left. There are comments all over the internet about this problem and Audi service says there is no fix. I have large feet and have never had this problem with any other car manufacturer. I need the NHTSA to get involved before someone gets hurt. This is a very big defect that needs to be fixed.
Adaptive module j428 failed and brakes seized while vehicle was in motion. . Audi customer service said that since they could not find a recall and the vehicle was nine years old they thought it was not thier problem. I think the problem could hav e resulted in a serious accident at high speeds and could have killed me. I paid for the repair but told them they should check ihto the problem becuase of the safety issue but did not receive a positive response. I feel the problem should be researched and I would like feed back on any information that would result from the research.

The contact stated vehicle has accelerated on its own twice. The first time it took off he had to put in neutral and coast into a parking lot. The vehicle was put in drive and moved out of the main part of the parking lot. The vehicle was put back into neutral and turned off. It was towed to the dealership. They could not duplicate the problem. This happened again approximately 18 months later. He drove in driveway and put the vehicle in neutral to pick up the paper. The vehicle accelerated and he turned it around. The contact stood on the brakes and coasted to the end of the driveway. The vehicle was towed to the dealership. They could not duplicate the problem. The dealership cleaned debris away from the accelerator, and said the rug may have been stuck.
