Assist Problems of Audi Q5

I am reporting a recurring safety defect in my 2025 Audi Q5 (VIN: [xxx] ). The vehicle has been in the dealership for approximately 42 non-consecutive days for repeated malfunctions of multiple safety systems. While driving, the vehicle displays warnings and disables the following systems: sos, adaptive cruise assist, active front assist/distance warning, lane change warning, proactive occupant protection, traffic sign recognition, adaptive light, emergency assist, high-beam assistant, lane departure warning, and distance warning. These systems intermittently fail and become unavailable, triggering dashboard alerts and warning messages. Despite multiple repair attempts, the same failures continue to reoccur. The dealership has acknowledged the issue and stated that a fix exists; however, they advised that the necessary repair parts or software will not be available for approximately 3–6 months. I was instructed to take the vehicle back and continue driving it until the fix becomes available. I am extremely concerned about operating a vehicle with known unresolved safety defects affecting numerous driver assistance and crash prevention systems. The repeated failure of these systems significantly impacts the safe operation, reliability, and value of the vehicle. I am requesting investigation into this matter and the delay in providing a timely repair. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).

The lane keeping system randomly will malfunction and will veer the car either into oncoming traffic or out of the lane I am driving in. The most recent it tried to veer me off the road completely and into a sign off the road. The vehicle will also sometimes trigger the Audi collision avoidance system randomly. It has done it twice while turning left that the car will come to an abrupt halt for no reason. Both of these concerns can create car accidents if someone is either following closely behind or if the car veers into a different lane. I have reported this to the dealer multiple times and have escalated to Audi corporate. They are unable to replicate the issue, because it happens randomly and say the vehicle is operating within the standard. There have been no warnings or lamps that would indicate that the car has an issue.

Steering rack completely failed while driving. Causing steering to become unusable nearly causing a wreck putting everyone on the road at risk. Vehicle has less 80k miles and is driven occasionally. This was an issue on early models and seems to not have been fully fixed on this model either. Warning lamps require vehicle to pullover and stop.
