The airbags in our 2005 Audi A4 were recalled. We had the airbag replaced due to the recall in Audi of Stratham, 58 Portsmouth Ave, Stratham, NH 03885 in February 2023. On 12/8/23, my daughter was involved in a serious front-end collation with another vehicle. The airbags in the Audi did not deploy. The other vehicle (which sustained less damage) did deploy. Without the airbags, her face hit the steering wheel, causing a large laceration to her eyelid and significant bruising and swelling to her face.

On July 2, 2020 I was in a city street sitting at a stop light waiting for it to turn green when all of a sudden the steering wheel, driver side seat and the driver side curtain airbags deployed hitting me. I was in a state of shock since I was not moving or had not been hit. I had to move the car over into a parking lot. The horn was honking and would not stop so I had to take out fuse. I did not know what to do so I called a family friend to come help tow the car back to my house since I was not far from it. Then on July 5, 2020 I received a post card in the mail from Audi dealership saying there was a urgent airbag safety recall. So on July 6, 2020 I contacted the dealership and explained what had happened and left my information. I have not heard anything back from them since. I have not driven the car it had been sitting in driveway since this happened.

Noticed air bag lights on didnt think quick, also I notuced electrical issue here & there. Engine runs & sounds louder when using A/C. when you go to shut off vehicle theres a loud thump thump noise at the end fir about 3 mins or so, problems starting the engine, back windshield wiper turns on by its self, a week ago the light in the bavk turns on by it self. Other engine problems not sure if all tied in together I just started my purchase on 7/21/2020 from a car dealer. Had it checked by 2 people & one said air leak showing from diagnostic machine. My dealer put on machine & said didnt see nothing wrong. Power steering goes out have to fill almost every 2-3 days. My dealer said dont put more cause it could mess up engine. So I didnt & 2 days later driving 15 -20 mph on residential street it starts sounding like its going to stop so I presumed to shut off engine. Chevk under the hood & the power steering fluid was bone dey smoking slightly, & belt was pulled out a& shredded & it wouldnt even turm on enough to get a full start & dealer came & towed it back. Now he saying I need a new engine

After 10 years of use, turning left the rubber wheel bearing on the driver side makes a pop noise. Not from driving erradic but from typical wear and tear. Also, there is an mph check engine light that comes on but when plugged up to a code reader, no problems are found. Cars wont pass smog with check engine lights on, so this is a major concern. If there are no mechanical issues why would the check engine light come on? I think computers in luxury cars back then were a bit too advanced for their time and weren't very well thought out. Air bag had a random deployment when I popped the hood and unscrewed the pressure on the radiator fluid. Going to need this VIN added to the recall for airbags to get a new one.

Tamara recall. I have tried for several months to get this replaced as the year and make of my vehicle are in the target area for possible defect. I was originally told by the local Audi dealership that my vehicle was not eligible for the recall even though I presented them with paperwork. I spoke with them again today and I was informed that they have no timeframe for repair and out me on a call list. This is our family vehicle. I am a parent and I work in emergency medicine. This greatly concerns me as I have see traumatic injuries on a regular basis.

'takata recall' I made appointments and registered to get my airbag replaced on numerous occasions. In June I made an appointment at the elmwood park location and when I got their the guy lied and said the computers are down he didn't want to help me. They have the parts available and don't want to fix it it is now 2018 and no one from Audi called me and my vehicle is registered with them. So my air bag can rupture at any time I was in a car accident on 1/4/17 I was intentionally rear ended by a white BMW and I was in the car with my 8 year old nephew and mom who was in the front passenger seat I could have been killed and seriously injured. Not only that my gas tank fuel injector the air pressure is off causing it to stop constantly while getting gas. Third I had this P2005 and P2006 error code which is the intake air exchange manifold flap check engine light on which is a manufacturing error when I went to get it replaced costing me 1,800 the light is still on and the same error code is back 2 months later nothing was fixed on my car period and on 10/31/17 I went to Audi in upper saddle river and they did not fix it either of find a dealer with the airbag near by that has the parts to replace it tho could have cost me and my passengers their life and this isn't unacceptable for Audi to treat customers like that regardless of my vehicle being old new or brought from a third party dealership all Audi owners should be treated equally and remedies be address according to law and recall. Being that a safety recall is issued customer preference is null and void because safety and wealth has no bearing in who gets first dibs on airbags no Audi owner should get preference over the other whether it be they brought their car directly from the Audi dealership or not and that the impression I'm getting and based on my experience not all customers and owner are treated equally

Takata recall. A recall notice was issued in January 2017 for a takata airbag in this vehicle. I have called two dealers repeatedly during 2017, in ithaca and cicero, however replacement airbags remain unavailable. Since I received the recall notice, I have stopped carrying passengers in the front passenger seat of my vehicle. This has impeded use of the vehicle. It is unacceptable to put another person at risk of injury.
