Recall 19N4 Audi sent me a letter stating that repairs are necessary on my car due to a defect in manufacturing. However the 'repair recall' will not be available until" late 2018'. oh yeah, the defect relates to motor vehicle safety!! they also provide a warning not to park my vehicle indoors as a precaution. So, based upon my understanding of their letter, I am not to garage my car until it is repaired sometime in late 2018 !! the closing sentence gives theircompany credit for taking this action to ensure my safety, however the action is not even definitively scheduled!! at the very least this defect should be prioritized and at the very minimum should be a definite date to repair theses cars. The same closing sentence gives Audi credit for 'taking this action' to ensure my continued satisfaction with my vehicle. How disingenuous!! I can tell you that satisfaction has been shaterred.[xxx] information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).'

On 4/17/2018 I drove my car from saint petersburg, Florida to ruskin, fl, which is about 40 miles one way. On the way back I would say I drove about 28 miles then suddenly the car started smoking from the front & back of car. I pulled over on the highway after coming across the skyway bridge, the car cuts off. I would say 1 or 2 mins later flames were on top of the hood of the car. At that time I exit the car & waited til the fire department & state trooper come. Case number: Fhpc180ff040720.
