2015 Audi Allroad problems, recalls and owner complaints

ESPECIALLY IN COLD WEATHER, STEERING INTERMITTENTLY DEVELOPED RESISTANCE AT CENTER POINT WHILE IN MOTION - FROM 30 MPH ON UP. STEERING WOULD NOT STAY POINTED STRAIGHT AHEAD, WOULD KICK OFF TO ONE SIDE OR ANOTHER. PROBLEM WOULD GO AWAY IF CAR WAS TURNED OFF AND ON, ONLY TO REOCCUR. PROBLEM WAS DIAGNOSED AS INTERNAL STEERING RACK FAULT CAUSING STEERING SHAFT TO HEAT UP AND BIND. SOLUTION WAS TO REMOVE AND REPLACE ENTIRE RACK ASSEMBLY AND STEERING KNUCKLE.

UPON RETURNING TO THE CAR AFTER A REST STOP, A RED STEERING WHEEL SYMBOL APPEARED IN THE DASHBOARD ALONG WITH "DO NOT DRIVE". IT GOT TOWED TO A DEALER WHO REPORTED ENGINE CODE DTC B2000. CAR WAS 1 MONTH OUR OF WARRANTY. REPAIR WAS >$3000 REPLACING THE STEERING GEAR AND POWER STEERING MODULE. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN QUITE BAD HAD IT FAILED WHILE THE CAR WAS IN MOTION. THE CAR ONLY HAS ABOUT 34,000 MILES. THIS IS A SERIOUS AND IN MY VIEW POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS ISSUE. NOT TO MENTION EXPENSIVE.

THE VEHICLE ROLLS FORWARD WHILE FACING A DOWNHILL, AFTER SHIFTING INTO REVERSE.

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…

I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE (19N4) AND AS A FIRST STEP I'M ADVISED TO HAVE AN AUDI DEALER DISCONNECT THE COOLANT PUMP IMMEDIATELY TO AVOID A FIRE. I LIVE 5 HOURS FROM THE NEAREST AUDI DEALERSHIP BUT HAVE A LOCAL SHOP THAT WORKS ON GERMAN MADE CARS INCLUDING THE AUDI. HOWEVER, AUDI REFUSES TO PROVIDE INSTRUCTIONS TO THE LOCAL SHOP TO DISCONNECT THE COOLANT PUMP AND AVOID A FIRE. HOWEVER, WHEN I CALL MY DEALER THEY CAN'T GET ME IN ON THE DAY I'LL BE IN THE AREA. SO, I'M TOLD IT'S IMPORTANT BUT GIVEN NO REMEDY TO AVOID A FIRE. BASICALLY, AUDI SENT OUT THE RECALL NOTICE TO COVER THEIR BUTTS AND…

FIREMAN AT THE SCENE TOLD ME "THERE IS A RECALL ON YOUR CAR, DID YOU KNOW?" MY MARKET VALUATION REPORT AS MY CAR WAS TOTALED, STATES THERE IS A RECALL ON THIS CAR. IT STATES DUE TO AN IMPROPER ALGORITHM IN THE AIRBAG CONTROL MODULE, IF A CRASH NECESSITATES DEPLOYMENT OF THE SIDE AIRBAGS, A SECOND IMPACT TO THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE MAY NOT COMMAND THE FRONT AIR BAGS TO ALSO DEPLOY AND AS A CONSEQUENCE FURTHER STATES, IF THE…
