SQ5

  • 51,000 miles
The steering system froze during operation. Sensors indicated car is not safe to drive. There was heavy rain storm prior to the failure which allowed water into steering rack module. This is a reoccurring problem with Audi SQ5 based on my research after incident. My concern this system failure could have caused a catastrophic accident if failure occurred during high speeds and high traffic. Also, the car had its regular maintenance a few week prior to incident.
