Lose Power Steering problem #1

Car was parked outside in stowe, vt when temp dropped to -13. Able to back out of hotel parking space but noticed steering was stiff. Once onto the street, lost power steering completely! using all my strength, I could barely steer the car over to the side of the street. Stayed in the car, running with the heat on, for about 15 minutes while we arranged for a tow. When I turned the car off and then on again (my wife's suggestion) the power steering came back! we drove all the way back to MA without a problem. Three days later, my local Audi dealer checked out the car with their computer and only found the record of the incident but no cause and everything looked good otherwise. It hasn't happened again, but it hasn't been that cold on the cape.

Steering problem #2

My Audi Q3 2015 started with the tpms on and the traction skid symbol also lit up on dashboard. I brought it to Audi of warwick, rhode island and they did a diagnostic testing on it and found that it was the all-wheel-drive control module on a lot of 2015 Q3 is just like mine had recalls on that same part in my car only has 80,000 miles on it and at 49,000 miles or 50,000. The whole turbo went on that car and had to be replaced. . I feel that the all-wheel-drive control module [xxx] and went on a car with 80,000 miles on it. That’s only driven 15 to 30 miles a day or not even every day. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).
