I have been an Audi A4 owner for more than 10 years. During that time, I have had 2 incidents where I could have easily been killed as well as injured or killed passengers in oncoming vehicles. The latest was this morning on March 23, 2022. The other was nearly 10 years ago. My personal investigation has led me to a conclusion that I have not yet seen anywhere else. In both cases, I am trying to get into a heavy flow of traffic. I know that I will have to "gun it" to get up to speed. For that reason, I have one...

The contact leased a 2021 Audi A4. The contact stated that the dealer had provided her with the vehicle rental while her vehicle was being repaired. The contact stated that while driving at 4 MPH and turning into a parking pace on the 4th floor of a parking garage, the vehicle inadvertently accelerated on its own at 100 MPH. The contact depressed the brake pedal several times but it failed to respond. The vehicle crashed into the fence of steel and broke a portion of the wall. The air bags deployed. There were no...

The contact owned a 2021 Audi A4. The contact stated that while driving at a low rate of speed through a parking lot, the vehicle independently accelerated and the brake pedal locked. The vehicle accelerated up a hill as the contact was unable to depress the brake pedal; he collided with an electric pole which caused the vehicle to stop. Due to the shock and abruptness of the failure, the contact was uncertain if any warning lights illuminated the instrument panel. The air bags did not deploy upon impact. The...

On january 28, 2019 I was driving to my medical appointment at 35 miles per hour when my car froze up then bucked and now no longer the transmission will no longer engage. Upon research audi has known of this transmission having serious faults and that it will break down without warning. Audi has refused to do any recall on these transmissions, even after a class action that was settled, audi will not do any recall.

Driving home from work, all of a sudden my vehicle was revving while it was idle and at low speed, making it very difficult and dangerous to steer the car and keep it under control. Upon inspection, it was found that the timing chain tensioner had failed and had caused serious engine damage, causing the pistons to fire prematurely. Previously the tensioner was replaced in 2014 by audi when the car had ~50k miles and was reported as a "weak tensioner". My car currently has 92k miles. I believe that no replacement tensioner should only last 40k miles and cause catastrophic engine failure and put consumers at risk of not being able to control their cars.

Takata recall water pump is bad an it is on the recall list

Gas pedal became stuck while driving on the freeway. I was able to pull to the shoulder by putting the vehicle in neutral and turning off the vehicle. Not sure exactly how this occurred, but it appeared that the pedal accelerated on it's own. I sent an email to audi to see if there were any incidences similar to this. The incident occurred on november 12, 2016.

Tl* the contact owns a 2003 audi a4. While driving at 40 mph, the accelerator pedal became stuck to the floorboard of the vehicle. The contact stated that the accelerator pedal had to be lifted with her foot for it to go back to normal position. The failure recurred on three occasions. While at a complete stop and attempting to accelerate, the vehicle would jerk. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the transmission needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 100,000.

03 Audi a4 6 speed auto cvt transmission, this vehicle has known issues with shifting from 1st to 2nd gear too soon. While driving this vehicle from a complete stop on an on ramp on rt 80 I hit the gas and it would shift from first to second and back to first then lurch forward while rolling. While this is going on I am trying to merge on the highway which put my car into the right lane doing about 2 mph with traffic (which would be a safe distance if this issue didn't happen) having to come to an abrupt stop not...

As I was driving the gas pedal went to the floor full throttle. I almost had an accident. I final got the car over to the road at a stop by putting the car in neutral. The engine revved up as high as it could go. So I cut the car off then cut it back on and it continued to have the same problem. It took 3 times of cutting the car off and waiting a few minutes before the car returned to normal.

While stopped at an intersection waiting to turn left across traffic, let off brake to accelerate while turning when the engine hesitated. Pressing the gas pedal at this moment resulted in minimal car movement placing my car in the path of oncoming traffic. I pressed the gas pedal more and the car finally over accelerated resulting in some loss of control in the turn. This is not the first time I have noticed engine hesitation from a stop. The same hesitation has occurred at four way stops and stop lights. The...

Was driving on freeway for a few hours during which car was running fine, and car suddenly lost power just after I got off freeway and approached a mountain road incline. There was no warning light, or prior symptoms to engine failure, it just stopped. With help, I was able to get car out of the middle of the road and to safety. Tried to troubleshoot, used engine error code reader, and no fault codes found. Performed basics checked for potential fuel vapor lock due to altitude; checked oil, coolant and fuel levels-...

While driving through a parking lot, my 2004 audi a4 1.8 Cabriolet suddenly accelerated for no apparent reason. I was able to shut it down and checked to make sure the floor mat was not interfering with the gas pedal. I restarted the car and drove to my next location without incident. However, after leaving my next location and pulling out onto the main road the car started accelerating again and was difficult to control. The more I applied the brake, the more the engine raced. Afraid of causing an accident in...
