1993 Audi 90 Complaints

WHEN IGNITION SWITCH DOES NOT KICK FROM THE START TO THE RUN POSITION THE STARTER REMAINS ENGAGED. ONCE IN THE KEY IS MANUALLY MOVED INTO THE RUN POSITION IF NOT IN THE EXACT POSITION THE FOLLOWING SYSTEMS DON'T WORK: HEAD LIGHTS, WIPERS, TURN-SIGNALS, POWER WINDOWS, REAR DEFROST, SIDE MIRRORS DEFROST, AIR-CONDITIONER / HEAT SYSTEM. AUDI HAS RECALLED 24,000 MODELS FROM '94 - '96 TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. WHEN I CONTACTED THE MANUFACTURER THEY SAID I WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL AND THAT I WOULD HAVE TO GO TO THE DEALER. THE DEALER HAS BEEN VERY UNRESPONSIVE TO MY PROBLEMS IN THE PAST SO I THOUGHT I WOULD START FROM THE TOP AND GO DOWN. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. ALAN TOLER. *AK

ON 10/17/00 , THE DRIVER'S SIDE FRONT WHEEL OF THIS VEHICLE BROKE AWAY FROM THE ROTOR. SUBSEQUENT LOSS OF CONTROL OF VEHICLE, HOWEVER, LUCKILY NO INJURIES. UNFORTUNATELY, ANOTHER VEHICLE RAN OVER THE WHEEL WHICH HAD CONTINUED DOWN THE HIGHWAY. MECHANIC SUGGESTED METAL FATIGUE. SENT NOTIFICATION TO AUDI CLIENT RELATIONS FOR REIMBURSEMENT OF EXPENSES. ALSO, SUGGESTED AUDI LOOK INTO MY INCIDENT WITH AN EYE TOWARDS PUBLIC SAFETY. I HAVE THE FAULTY WHEEL ALONG WITH THE ROTOR AT MY RESIDENCE FOR ANYONE TO INSPECT. I ALSO REQUESTED AUDIT TO INSPECT ALL MY WHEELS AND ALSO THE WHEELS OF MY OTHER 1994 AUDI 90 CS. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS SITUATION, ESPECIALLY IF METAL FATIGUE WAS THE CAUSE. *AK
