The contact owns a 2020 Audi Q7. The contact stated that while driving 15 mph, the vehicle unexpectedly lost motive power and the brakes engaged without warning, causing the vehicle to rear-end another vehicle in front. The vehicle was towed to a local tow yard. The contact sustained injuries to the lower back, neck, and head. Medical attention was provided. The contact received continued treatment for whiplash, migraine headaches, and chiropractic treatments. A police report was filed, but the information was unavailable. The failure mileage was approximately 73,000.
Often gets warning about parking brake malfunction. Dealership already checked once and could not find the problem. Warning comes on speedometer as follows: "parking brake: malfunction! please contact service. ".
Two issues: the small portable air pump that came with the car would blow the fuse to the 12v cigarette lighter. After a new fuse is put in, this would happen on about every third or fourth time of using of the pump. I have replaced about 5 fuses already. The second issue is the squeaking of the rear brakes when backing up during cold or hot. However, it does happen more when cold/in the morning. A factory dealership had look at the issue but found nothing.
