DT: THE CONTACT'S WIFE WAS DRIVING AND VEHICLE ACCELERATED TO 90 MPH. A LOCAL MECHANIC DETERMINED THAT THE CONTROL ROD WAS JAMMED. THE MECHANIC DISCONNECTED THE CRUISE CONTROL SO THAT THE CONTROL ROD WOULD NOT STICK AGAIN. NHTSA RECALL 96V084000 FOR WAS ISSUED. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THIS VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL DUE TO VIN. *AK

DRIVER'S SEAT BELT RANDOMLY LOOSES TENSION. THIS HAS HAPPENED OFTEN WHEN LEANING FORWARD IN AN ATTEMPT TO SEE BETTER AROUND A TURN OR AT NIGHT. SEATBELT REQUIRES MANY YANKS AND MUCH MOVEMENT TO REGAIN TENSION, WHICH TENDS TO BE EASILY LOST AGAIN. THIS HAS HAPPENED IN SOME SITUATIONS WHERE AN ACCIDENT WOULD BEEN MUCH MORE DANGEROUS DUE TO THE BELT.*AK

FUEL INJECTORS ARE FAILING ON THE CAR, AS THEY HAVE FOR MANY OTHERS. THIS HAS CAUSED ROUGH RUNNING, VERY POOR PERFORMANCE, HIGH FUEL CONSUMPTION, ETC.

THIS MAY NOT COMPLY WITH EMISSIONS REQUIREMENTS.*AK

HAVE REPLACED THE IGNITION SWITCH 3 TIMES SINCE JANUARY 1996. THE SWITCH HAS A POSITION THAT CONTROLS THE TURN SIGNALS AND WINDSHIELD WIPERS. ONE OF THE FAILURE MODES I HAVE EXPERIENCED ALLOWS THE CAR TO START AND RUN PUT DISCONNECTS THE TURN SIGNALS AND WIPERS. I FIND THIS OUT IN TRAFFIC WHEN I NEED THOSE ELEMENTS. AUDI WILL NOT ACKNOWLEDGE THIS PROBLEM, BUT I NOTICE THE LATEST SWITCH SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN STRENGTHENED WHERE IT WAS BREAKING PREVIOUSLY. I FIND IT HARD TO BELIEVE THAT I'M THE ONLY…
