I have called my dealership and reached out to the vehicle manufacturer on their website numerous times over a 10 year period (at the very least since audi announced agreed to the repairs). i keep on receiving notice postcards from audi to have this scheduled with my local dealership. when i call they keep telling me to be patient, they will call me when one comes in. i have started to receive postcards from another dealer to schedule the repair...only this dealer is across the country in california! it does not seem to me when i contact audi of america they don't really care. i only have approximately 70,000 miles on the car because i don't drive it with my family aboard(because of the factory installed takata front passenger anti personnel device). the only help from audi was in the from of a recommendation "do not" use front passenger seat. to recap 12 year old vehicle, i believe i live in zone2, numerous attempts to both audi of america and my local dealership, recall notices from california! *****update: as i was about to file this complaint i decided to call benzel busch audi to check. and miraculously they have one. i was told by audi of america through customer service representative greg m. on may 16, 2019, that he spoke to katherine at service and that they are awaiting parts and that she assured him that i was a priority and once the part arrives they will be reaching out to me directly. in the almost a year of waiting, no one has contacted me, not aoa or local dealer. i called her today jan. 8, 2020 and scheduled a repair on jan.13. it would seem that i am not a priority.

Takata recall: audi refuses to perform the recall for u.s citizens abroad. i am u.s. citizen currently based in europe, working for a u.s. it company. i am the original owner, the vehicle was until 2013 in the u.s., and i moved it temporarily to germany for my assignment here. i am planning to take the vehicle back home to the u.s. upon my return. i received the recall to my u.s. address and asked audi to do the recommended repair in germany, where the vehicle is currently located. but they refuse to do so in germany. i am concerned that as a u.s. citizen abroad, that i am at risk with this vehicle and request audi to perform the recommended repair also during my overseas assignment in germany.
Takata recall - i have been trying to get my passenger airbag replaced since the recall was issued. i have been calling my local audi dealership in chantilly, va every month or so to check if the part is available, always get the same answer "someone will call you back" (they never do). i understand that takata went out of business but this is a safety issue and needs to be resolved by another manufacturer. my car at this moment is worthless, i will not be able to sell it with an open recall that has no remedy at this moment, nor can i have any passenger safely sit next to me. i am very disappointed with audi for handling this so poorly and for not having a solution. in the meanwhile i get takata airbag recall mailing remainders from audi about every other week, they make you think that the parts are available but they are not and for my older model car - a 2008 - they probably never will be. i will not buy another audi ever again.

Takata recall - dealer may be trying to sell it without repairs
Takata recall the recall was initiated on jan. 11, 2017, and the current status (as of nov. 15, 2017) is that a remedy is not yet available. nothing has happened yet, but it seems that 10 months is more than adequate between notice and allowing me to have it repaired.
Takata recall is directly responsible for me driving a potentially deadly car over 70,000 miles and 10 years. to add insult to injury or death, the deadly defect has only been acknowledged in the last 18 months and there has been no remedy during this time, the idea that i have to be dead or permanently maimed, to qualify for litigation/compensation, is what make this dangerous situation deadly. it was attempted manslaughter until the delay in admittance of a deadly defect and now has become attempted murder with the delay of an immediate remedy. i request compensation of $100,000.00 per year for every year i have owned my vehicle with this takata airbag deadly defect.

Airbag was recalled in january and audi of america has not sent any information on this recall. first week of november i received a generic flyer in the mail with information on this issue.
Takata recall - i have now had two official notices that my car is under recall, but the audi dealer in sf (royal auto group) still says they don't have parts and can't fix it. additionally, they won't give me a loaner while i wait. this means i am driving an incredibly unsafe car around simply because bureaucracy is getting in the way of fixing it.

Takata recall. my 2008 audi a4 has an airbag light on which when ran by computer indicates that the passenger airbag is defective. i need this issue resolved as soon as possible.
Takata recall there is an open recall for my checked frontal passenger airbags but the manufacturer has yet to provide a free remedy for these defective airbags. i would like the replacement of these air bags for free before the recall case is closed.
It happens when i turn the car on and i go to park it. when i pass reverse. it seems to happen a lot more often after it rains. my transmission is going into limp mode due to a major fault. code p0706: transmission range sensor circuit range/performance the transmission range sensor tells the tcm the position of the gear lever. it also contains a neutral safety switch, which ensures that you can only start your car in neutral or park. potential causes for this code to set are: faulty transmission range sensor misadjusted transmission range sensor open or shorted transmission range sensor harness faulty pcm it happens to a lot of the a4 audi's. its dangerous and its not anything that owners of the audis did or did not do. i have never neglected my car. it is something that is enevatable because it was caused during the manufacturing.
Takata recall car under recall since may 27, 2016; consistently unable to have airbag replaced. tired of driving unsafe car
Takata recall. recall issued in may of 2016, but in almost a year there is still no fix available.
Takata recall-my 2008 audi a4 has been under recall for much greater than one year. i am at the audi dealer today for routine service and again i have been presented with a reminder that my car is under recall and that for safety concerns no one should ride in the passenger front seat! i have been patient listening to the corporate-speak about how this is a not an audi problem, but a takata problem. at this time, i believe that volkswagen ag, the owner of audi should own this problem and not continue to pass it off to a financially unaccountable international parts manufacturer. i have been informed that my vehicle is not eligible for dealer trade-in because of this unfulfilled recall. at this time my financial loss is not insignificant, however the sustained exposure to life threatening injury cannot be justified by audi or volkswagen. patience and reasonable understanding can be taken advantage by corporate greed. i now refuse to accept continued delay from the most profitable division of volkswagen ag.
Takata recall: i received my passenger frontal airbag recall (dir2) notice dated march 2017 and it advises that because the replacement parts are not available, that audi recommends avoiding use of the front passenger seat whenever possible until the recall repair has been performed. this vehicle is my family's primary vehicle and is used by the driver and one or more passengers nearly every day. we have a second vehicle, a 2007 ford ranger which also has a takata passenger frontal airbag recall with no date for repair. i have spoken with my local audi dealer who has stated that no replacement parts will be available for at least two years or more. we have waited for the ford ranger airbag replacement parts for a couple of years already. we do not have the resources to scrap either of our defective vehicles and start over with another car, nor can we afford to rent a vehicle to replace either or both of the vehicles that are deemed to be unsafe for our family. this lack of a solution on the part of the car manufacturers and by the government overseeing this issue is deplorable.

Takata recall | my vehicle has a recalled airbag and while the manufacturer is allegedly unable to replace it, for reasons unclear, i've been advised not to have anyone sit in the passenger seat'which is not an acceptable solution.
Takata recall, no solution or remedy is available. it has been greater than 1 year (jan 11, 2017) and the loss of use of vehicle due to recommendation not to have a passenger in the front seat is beyond unacceptable.
