Audi Audi A5 Problems by year

years. Now, I am experiencing a complete failure of both front windows. This pattern of repeated issues raises serious concerns about the overall reliability and quality of the vehicle. I rely on my vehicle daily to transport my children and manage my responsibilities. Due to this failure, my vehicle is currently not secure or usable in normal conditions, which has placed me in a very difficult position. Additionally, I have been informed by an Audi technician that this is a known issue with Audi A5 models. Given that this defect has been acknowledged, it is extremely concerning that no preventative solution or recall has been implemented to protect consumers from this exact situation. This failure is unacceptable in a vehicle at this price point and presents a risk for further damage, including potential electrical issues due to water exposure. I am requesting that Audi of America take full responsibility for this matter and provide coverage for: Repair of the window system Any resulting interior or electrical damage caused by water intrusion A thorough inspection of the vehicle to ensure no additional damage has occurred I would also like this issue formally documented as part of any ongoing investigation into known defects affecting the Audi A5. Please provide a prompt response with next steps toward resolution. I can be reached at your earliest convenience.

September 2024. The weather was extremely hot in the desert, so I was closely monitoring the tire pressure through the vehicle's sensors. No abnormalities were detected before the sudden explosion. Fortunately, I was able to safely maneuver the vehicle off the highway despite the shock of the situation. It took several months for the Audi Pacific Service Center to replace the tires and send them to Continental for analysis. Continental has since denied reimbursement for the vehicle repairs, providing only a general report stating that the failure was unrelated to the recall. On [[redacted]] I requested a more detailed analysis, including a comprehensive report with supporting images and videos. Continental indicated a one-week turnaround, but as of February 6, 2025, I have not received any further information. The Important Safety Recall notice I received explicitly states that the affected tires may develop belt edge separation due to excessive flexing in the tread shoulder, leading to potential tread/belt loss. This description aligns precisely with the failure I experienced. However, Continental has not provided any evidence or a substantive explanation as to why my case does not fall within the scope of the recall. Given the circumstances and the clear similarities between my experience and the recall description, I am requesting reimbursement for the repair costs resulting from this incident. My car is still not safe to drive because of the damage. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
