| Wiper problems |
The sunroof sunshade broke while retracting and blocked rear window causing a hazard. I had to tape it up as it is now only partially attached and I am unable to remove. It is taped so I can continue driving safetly. I was driving when this happened.
Panoramic sunroof start leaking water when rain and panoramic foam swells, foam becomes rusied and builds corrosion.
Front windshield washer non-operative. Dealer diagnosed as bad switch. Not covered by warranty, recall or campaign. (5) months out of warranty. Started as intermittent now not working at all. Vehicle will not pass MA state inspection as is.
Wipers do not keep windshield clear in winter snow and ice driving conditions. Wipers freeze up and do not clear windshield, seriously compromising visibility and causing dangerous vehicle operation. Design is proprietary and Audi do not offer winter blades to remedy this situation. Please note, this is for an Audi a4 quattro, not Q5 as your web site only acknowledges the a3 and Q5 as choices for vehicles.
