A7

  • 9,000 miles
Yesterday morning, while driving North on I-35 to work, there was a loud "pop" from directly above my windshield. This scared me to death! the sound was so frightening that I ducked and for a moment, I thought I had been involved in a wreck but quickly noticed nothing out of the ordinary had occurred. Typically, traffic is very heavy, only moving about 20mph. However, on this particular morning, traffic was somewhat lighter and moving about 40mph. I had clear visibility across the front window and could tell that nothing had flown in my direction. I was not trailing behind or around any SUVS, dump trucks, or other large vehicles that could have kicked up a rock. I also had not driven under an overpass, so I knew nothing could have fallen from above. Once I arrived at work, I discovered the front section of my panoramic roof was cracked and shattered all the way across the width of the vehicle and pressed inward, exposing the interior lining.

1st- having numerous sensor warning lights coming on at indiscriminate times while highway driving including telling me to put my hands on the wheel when they are on the wheel, cruise control sensor warning comes on and shuts of the cruise control and the lane guidance sensor comes on with warnings. I may get all three warnings appear on one 45 mile trip or I may not get any.sometimes it's the same one 3,4 or even 5 times.. 2nd mmi screen randomly does not come on and having issues after I hang up the phone the radio will not come back on and will continue to show phone in use. I restarted the car two or three times touching the screen over an over before it finally comes on. 3) seats randomly does not remember our key fobs. 4)paint is coming off the car in different spots please note that on the drivers side real quarter panel where the paint started peeling, the peeling spots are many many inches away from each other and they are in varied spots and not in a row. 5)shuttering when trying to turn. It acts like it doesn't want to go (like somethings coming at it) and it's stopping you. This was an issue in the very first visit when a sensor had to be replaced as well as something they did to fix the headlight issues then to. 6)new - warning sensor went off saying vehicle light malfunction. We got a picture of the triangle and the exclamation point. Also there a funny light (looks like a snow flake) show 6) windshield visual of speed and all the other stuff went off and on then out before everything blipped and came back on. 7) lock sensor malfunction. All these things are happening numerous times and have been to the dealer 4 times. Found out that a stop sale from Audi was issued for 2012-18 for our exact vehicle and others but ours is a 2019. This stop sale was issued because of numerous faulty sensors.
