2010 Audi A4Recalls, problems, MPG & safety

“This audi doesn’t have a dip stick that comes with the car. It burns 1-2 quarts of oil a month and doesn’t indicate when your car is low on oil. It’s a guessing game when the engine says put a quart of oil in and I needed 2 and a half quarts to be full. It’s such a saftey hazard I’m surprised audi hasn’t recalled this engine. I spent over $1000 to have everything resealed and fixed because it just ceased one day due to not having enough oil”

“CAR SUFFERED FROM CATASTROPHIC ENGINE FAILURE DUE TO KNOWN TIMING CHAIN ISSUES WITH THESE VEHICLES. THERE IS CURRENTLY A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT REGARDING THIS ISSUE. HTTPS://TIMINGCHAINLITIGATION.COM/”

“DRIVING TO WORK ON A COUNTRY ROADWAY, PASSED A VEHICLE AND BEGAN TO PULL BACK INTO MY LANE, RELEASING THE GAS PEDAL, BUT THE AUDI 2010 A4 CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE EVEN AFTER BRAKING, SPEEDS IN EXCESS OF 85-90 MPH. BRAKES FUNCTIONED, PULLED OVER, STOPPED CAR. LOOKED DOWN, NOTHING INTERFERING WITH THE GAS PEDAL. RESTARTED CAR, SPEEDOMETER NEEDLE JUMPED TO 7000-8000 RPM, CAR REVVED. NEEDED TO GET THE CAR TO A SAFE LOCATION, PROCEEDED TO DRIVE DOWN THE ROAD WITH THE BRAKE PEDAL DEPRESSED, BRAKES BEGAN SMOKING BUT MADE IT TO A MINI MART, PARKED AND STOPPED CAR. CAR TOWED TO DEALERSHIP, DEALERSHIP SAID THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR. CONTACTED AUDI OF AMERICA, THEY REVIEWED THE RECORDS AND SAID THAT THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR. VEHICLE ACCELERATED TO HIGH RATE OF SPEED DESPITE DRIVER'S ATTEMPTS TO REDUCE SPEED. HAVE NOT DRIVEN VEHICLE SINCE THIS INCIDENT ON 7/7/11. NO PRIOR PROBLEMS, BUT SINCE I STOPPED THE VEHICLE AND LOOKED DOWN AT THE GAS PEDAL, THERE WAS NOTHING IN THE WAY WHICH WOULD HAVE CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO ACCELERATE. DEALERSHIP STATES NO CODES WERE THROWN AND NOTHING SHOWS UP. *KB”
