TAKATA RECALL: AUDI REFUSES TO PERFORM THE RECALL FOR U.S CITIZENS ABROAD. I AM U.S. CITIZEN CURRENTLY BASED IN EUROPE, WORKING FOR A U.S. IT COMPANY. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER, THE VEHICLE WAS UNTIL 2013 IN THE U.S., AND I MOVED IT TEMPORARILY TO GERMANY FOR MY ASSIGNMENT HERE. I AM PLANNING TO TAKE THE VEHICLE BACK HOME TO THE U.S. UPON MY RETURN. I RECEIVED THE RECALL TO MY U.S. ADDRESS AND ASKED AUDI TO DO THE RECOMMENDED REPAIR IN GERMANY, WHERE THE VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY LOCATED. BUT THEY REFUSE TO DO SO IN GERMANY. I AM CONCERNED THAT AS A U.S. CITIZEN ABROAD, THAT I AM AT RISK WITH THIS VEHICLE AND REQUEST AUDI TO PERFORM THE RECOMMENDED REPAIR ALSO DURING MY OVERSEAS ASSIGNMENT IN GERMANY.
