Audi safety recall 19n4-electric (after run) coolant pump. I have been waiting now about 6 months for a new pump to be available from audi to replace the defective cooling pump, that is to cool the turbocharger after the engine is turned off. I was told, in writing and over the phone by audi, that this replacement would be done by the end of 2018. Today when I called audi they will only say it is to be completed by the end of 2019. Not having the after run pump properly cooling the turbocharger can cause damage...

to the turbocharger and that can be very costly to repair. Also, if I want to sell or trade in this car now, with out the replacement pump, the value of the car is worth less and I will loose money due to this issue. What can be done to get this pump replaced as audi said they would originally?
Tl* the contact owns a 2015 audi a4. The contact received a recall notice for nhtsa campaign number: 18v229000 (engine and engine cooling) and stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The dealer (unknown dealer information) was contacted and confirmed that the part was not available for the recall remedy. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue and was not able to confirm when the parts were to become available. The contact had not experienced a failure. The vin was unknown.
I have yet to receive a remedy to fix my vehicle which I am told can catch fire. The recall is 19n4, can you please follow up on this and let me know if there is a remedy.
I just bought the car from leasing it in may 2018.They did a inspection at audi and about 3 weeks later the engine got stuck and car smoked from hood.These a4 have excessive oil consumption which can damage engine.But audi sells vehicles with faulty engines and says its normal......But no it is not.They sell unsuspecting consumers vehicles with faulty engines....I got stranded on highway in heavily smoking vehicle...What is now useless.I was terrified
Recall nhtsa: 18v229 sounds critical and unsafe. Audi even states in letter do not park in garage due to liability. Will not payoff my car in order to obtain a new one. Tried two dealerships and all they care about is making a buck. Should at least provide a rental till repairs are made or pay off my car for trade in with audi financial.
