Water leakage into the driver-??s side floor panel. Water leakage seeped into battery compartment below driver-??s seat which is a result of a sunroof drain problem. New Battery was installed for only 3 months before the low battery charge warning light came on. Car will not start at times. Water leakage into electrical components that lead to the MMI not turning on or working at all. The MMI shut off first, then the battery became faulty. The car has been jumped at least 10 times due to the water damage, which proposes a risk to the driver. The electrical components are being flooded, which is a safety issue and proposes a safety hazard to the driver and all passengers. The electrical is at risk for further damage. This problem has been reported by others many times. Other warning lights such as the air bag light comes on and goes off, which is a safety risk if the air bags are faulty and the driver cannot tell if the malfunction is electronics based caused by water damage.

I purchased a "fixd" device to determine any problems w/ my vehicle. I came upon this page and noted that there had been a recall of this vehicle back in Sept. 2016. I purchased this vehicle from a dealer on November 19, 2016. In looking into recall notices associated w/ this VIN it stated that the recall was "incomplete." I am now reporting this as the recall should have been taken care of, especially by a dealer, before I even purchased it. I have had a number of problems with this vehicle right from the onset. Please, look into this for me. Thank you

The 2007 Audi was hit on a high speed collision after other vehicle ran a red light and no air bags where deploid by the Audi Q7 after massive front and side collision from other vehicle at 50 mph. Not very happy of the safety problem that this luxury 2007 Audi Q7 vehicle has by not deploying the front and side airbags causing personal injury to my family during the accident. Police and fire rescue in the scene of the accident were very concern with the Audi Q7 failure of the safety airbags and suggested to report it to Audi usa for evaluation or posable recall.

The vehicle has had the same problem of misfiring for over 2 years and has been pointed out to the repair shop on many occasions. The next problem is the truck taking very long to crank over when starting. The last problem is the vehicle has water ingress that is causing the electrical components to not function properly. The vehicle has been brought in to be repaired over 10 weeks and problem still is happening. The warranty even expired while they were fixing the vehicle. The vehicle has become a loss interms of resale value and cannot be traded.

In my previous job, I evaluated vehicles for an oem. We had an Audi Q7 SUV in our fleet. I noted that the rear passenger windows (with an auto up feature) would allow a gap between the window glass and frame at a position where a child could place their fingers. The auto close feature would not return without causing a significant amount of pressure and potentially damage to the child's (or adults) fingers before reversing. The issue was noted without incident.
