I AM WRITING WITH RESPECT TO RECALL REPORT 18V370, POSSIBLE FAILURE OF FRONT PASSENGER SEAT PODS SENSING SYSTEM. AUDI NOTIFIED ME OF THIS DEFECT IN JULY 2018 AND STILL HAS NOT PRODUCED A SOLUTION FOR THE RECALL. BECAUSE OF THE UNPREDICTABILITY AS TO WHEN OR WHETHER THE PODS SENSING SYSTEM MIGHT FAIL (INCLUDING IMMEDIATELY BEFORE IMPACT), I CAN'T ALLOW ANYONE TO SIT IN THE AFFECTED SEAT. I BELIEVE AUDI IS BEING DELINQUENT IN ITS OBLIGATION TO REMEDY THIS ISSUE. MY DEALER INFORMED ME THAT THERE WOULD BE NO SOLUTION UNTIL AT LEAST 2019. I BELIEVE THIS IS CAUSING CONSUMER HARM AND THAT THEY SHOULD BE COMPELLED TO REMEDY THE SITUATION IMMEDIATELY. THEY SHOULD BE PRECLUDED FROM PRODUCING ANY NEW VEHICLES WITH THE CORRECTED PART UNTIL THEY COMPLETELY REPAIR EVERY AFFECTED EXISTING VEHICLE.

MY CAR HAS A RECALL. I'VE CALLED AUDI NO TIMELINE TOLD ME 3-6 MONTHS TILL CAN FIX. I AM ALSO NOT ALLOWED TO SELL MY CAR BECAUSE AUDI CAN'T SELL THE CARS. ESSENTIALLY I'M STUCK WITH AN UNSAFE CAR UNTIL AUDI DECIDES THEY WANT TO FIX.

PURCHASED A NEW 2017 AUDI A6. CAR ONLY HAS 1,200 MILES. DRIVING CAR ON FREEWAY WITH MY SON AND ENGINE COMPLETELY STOPPED NO POWER. THANK GOD WE ARE OK. HAD NO WARNING AT ALL. CAR JUST LOST POWER. I HAVE READ ABOUT OTHER MODELS RECALLED FOR AUDI DUE TO FUEL PUMP. DEALER IS STATING THE ISSUE ON OUR CAR IS ALSO FUEL PUMP. WORRIED THIS WILL HAPPEN AGAIN AND/OR SOMEONE ELSE COULD BE SERIOUSLY INJURED WHEN YOU ARE DRIVING AND CAR STOPS RUNNING FOR NO REASON. TRYING TO WORK WITH AUDI TO ALLOW US TO GIVE THEM VEHICLE BACK AS WE HAVE ONLY HAD CAR A COUPLE MONTH. I NO LONGER FEEL SAFE IN VEHICLE AND NOW THAT I HAVE READ ISSUES WITH OTHER MODELS AND WHAT OWNERS HAVE DESCRIBED OUR CAR HAD THE SAME ISSUE.
