2004 Audi Tt

IN NOVEMBER OF 2010, I WAS DRIVING IN MY 2004 1.8 AUDI TT AT APPROXIMATELY 45 MILES PER HOUR. WITHOUT WARNING, THE CAR LOST ALL POWER IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. FORTUNATELY, THE CAR LOST POWER AT 1:00 AM OR I MAY HAVE BEEN EASILY HIT/KILLED BY THE HEAVY FLOW OF DAYTIME TRAFFIC. AS IT TURNS OUT, THERE WAS AN IGNITION COIL RECALL ON MY VEHICLE. I NEVER RECEIVED NOTICE OF SUCH RECALL AND AS A RESULT, WAS PUT IN DANGER BY OPERATING A VEHICLE WITH A KNOWN DEFECT AND SUFFERED OVER TWO THOUSAND DOLLARS IN RELATED REPAIR EXPENSE. THE MECHANIC AT AUDI TOLD ME MY FUEL PUMP, COOLANT TEMP SENSOR, CRANK SENSOR AND IGNITION COIL NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. HE WAS QUITE SURPRISED THAT THE PREVIOUS AUDI DEALERSHIP DID NOT CORRECT THE RECALL DURING ROUTINE SERVICE. MY VEHICLE WAS PERFECTLY MAINTAINED, SERVICED BY AN AUDI DEALERSHIP AND HAD APPROXIMATELY 32,000 MILES. FAILURE OF AUDI TO NOTIFY ME OF THE RECALL AND FAILURE OF THE AUDI DEALERSHIP TO CORRECT THE IGNITION COIL DURING ROUTINE SERVICE COULD HAVE RESULTED IN GRAVE INJURY. BOTH AUDI CORP AND THE INDIVIDUAL AUDI DEALERSHIP DISPLAYED A CARELESS DISREGARD FOR MY SAFETY AND ANY OTHERS WHO MAY HAVE BEEN IMPACTED BY MY VEHICLE FAILURE. *TR

THE CAR WAS HAVING ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS, APPEAR RELATED TO INSTRUMENT CLUSTER FAILURE. I SCHEDULED WITH AUDI TO EVALUATE FAULTY GAS GAUGE AND RADIO STAYING ON AFTER KEY REMOVED. ANYHOW, BEFORE I COULD GET IT INTO AUDI, THE CAR WHILE DRIVING JERKED VIOLENTLY AND THEN WOULD NOT SHIFT GEARS. IT WAS LUCKY I WAS NOT GOING VERY FAST AS I WAS ON WINDY ROADS WITH CLIFFS. I COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY INJURED OR DEAD HAD THE CAR LOST CONTROL. THERE HAVE BEEN RECALLS ON THE DSG AND CLUTCH ASSEMBLY FOR MY MODEL CAR, BUT THEY DON'T SHOW UP ON MY RECORD WITH AUDI. THE CAR THEN WOULD NOT ENGAGE GEARS FOR A FEW RESTARTS, SUDDENLY IT WAS FINE AND WOULD DRIVE BUT I HAD IT TOWED DUE TO RISK FACTORS AND UNCERTAINTY. I BELIEVE THESE ARE RELATED EVENTS AND THEY TELL ME I NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION. THIS CAR HAS ONLY 45K MILES AND I'M NOT SURE IT IS A MECHANICAL FAILURE AT TALL. IT IS STRANGE THAT ALL OF THESE EVENTS COINCIDED AND SUSPECT PROBLEMS WITH COMPUTER COMMUNICATION BETWEEN TRANNY AND INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. THEY ARE NOT HELPING ME RESOLVE THIS AND DENYING INSTRUMENT CLUSTER PROBLEM. SAYING THERE IS NOTHING WRONG BUT THE GAS GAUGE IS NOT WORKING AND THIS IS A CLASSIC SIGN OF INSTRUMENT CLUSTER FAILURE WHICH LED TO THE LAWSUIT. *TR
