Related to recall 45f5 abs control module. This vehicle has a failed abs control module that deactivates abs braking systems, electronic stability control, and headlight range control.

Takata recall I had taken my automobile to audi of natick in natick, massachusetts for service twice in the spring of 2017, once at the end of may, and once more later in june. Both times the dealership offered a "check for active recalls" included with service. Both times the dealership did not report any active recalls. I only recently found out that the recall for the takata airbags in my vehicle was posted to audi in february of 2016. I know the replacement work was never performed for my particular car. I think this behavior on the part of the dealership, audi of natick is negligent, and very dangerous.

Takata recall I received a recall notice 04/28/2016 but I have not been contacted to have the airbag replaced.

At slow speeds & when stopped with vehicle in gear (drive or revers) the transmission jerks, clunks, feels like it's engaging and disengaging. It is dangerous - especially when stopped or parking as the vehicle will suddenly lunge forward or backward depending on the gear you are in. Unfortunately it has only resulted in damage to my own vehicle - not to another vehicle or person.

I've been calling for months & months to have this recall fixed. I'm always told that parts are not available. I need to have this fixed!! It's a safety issue. Ford should find a solution for this problem or offer to replace the car at no cost to me. I fear that if this part is not replaced, that my family may be harmed by the ruptured inflator. See the recall notice below: nhtsa recall number: opens new window takes away from vin lookup section> 16v079 recall date: february 9, 2016 manufacturer recall number:...

Takata airbags: audi notified me of the recall in february 2016 but said there was no fix. The audi service department at the dealership where I bought the car told me the replacement parts may not be available for 2 to 2 and 1/2 years. I am afraid to drive my car; I want it fixed.

I plan to trade my car in within 2 months. The dealership said I will get less for my trade in because of the recall has not been resolved. The takata airbag is beyond my control and I should not be the one endangered or suffer a monetary loss. I believe that audi should provide cash reimbursement for any loss.

Takata recall - takata has reported that the driver frontal airbag inflator could potentially rupture if the vehicle is involved in a crash where the frontal airbags are designed to deploy. In the event of an inflator rupture, metal fragments could pass through the airbag cushion material, which may result in serious injury or death to vehicle occupants. Audi notified me of the faulty airbag system, but has failed to remedy this safety recall for my vehicle. I am at risk everyday I get behind the wheel.
