| Equipment problems |
The vehicle was leaking gas. The vehicle rarely would start. Fuses easily burn out or go bad due to possible electrical problems. Now I am having to purchase maybe it is called a drive shaft? or something that makes the vehicle not go or start?? I am not a mechanic but I pay a lot of money on this vehicle every month, the repairs are extremely high and not wating to ruin my credit due to neglect part of Audi company. I will also get pictures as soon as the mechanic can get the parts and start working on the next problem.
The sunroof suddenly exploded while driving on freeway on 10/22/2018. With no apparent warning and no external impact.
This morning my was parked in the parking lot of one supermarket. I used the key to start the car and opened front passenger side door to load the stuff. My nanny opened 2nd row passenger side door to sit my daughter in the car seat. After then we both closed the doors. I tried to open the driver side door and my nanny tried to open the 2nd row driver's side door. But we couldn't open both doors! I tried to open the trunk. But I couldn't open it. All doors just automatically locked when the car was fully stopped and the engine was running. My 16 months old baby was locked in the car!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.
In Audi Q7, there is a lock button on the rear doors, which locks the whole car. This button does not get disabled when the child lock is engaged. A child seated in a rear seat can kick the button and easily lock the driver out of the vehicle, if the driver has left the car with keys inside the car. This is very common for refilling of gas. Our daughter was locked in the car for 1/2 hour while I brought another set of keys. It was hot outside and the car was not running, so there was no a/c. Police was dispatched to the scene to break her out, but I made it there before they did. Children in the car cannot open the door, since they are strapped in and / or they are too young to receive and follow instruction. This is a general child safety issue with this car and lock. There are many reports of the same issue on this web forum, reported for almost 5 years. Audi has not done anything. . Read more...
