1.i had an accident at approximately 10:45 a.m. on thursday, september 19, 2019 in the parking lot for the medical offices located at 2000 south mays street, round rock, texas. 2.i parked in a space on the south side of the building, which is part of their property. 3.my normal habit is to place the car in 'park' when i stop in a parking spot. 4.since it was very warm, i left the motor running so i'd have air conditioning as i placed the sun screen over the windshield. 5.the sun shade is one piece and takes a lot of time and effort to properly install. 6.when i completed installing the sun shade, i noticed the car was moving backwards at less than 5 mph. 7.i tried repeatedly to stop the car by pressing on the brake and slamming on the brake. 8.what was happening made no sense to me; it was surreal. why was the car moving backwards and why couldn't i stop the car? 9.the car stopped when it hit a parking lot light pole on my left rear and the left front of a toyota on my right rear. 10.the car is equipped with every pre sense, driver assistance, and collision avoidance system audi offers; however, all systems failed to detect or avoid the collision. 11.the accident was caused by some weird problem with my 2018 audi q5. there was nothing i could do in the time i had without the brakes working.
While driving down the expressway in chicago, transmission, and all safety features completely shut off. pressing on accelerator had no effect, and with limited steering was able to pull to roadside barely missing high-speed traffic. expressway roadside is narrow, so was nearly hit by many cars while waiting for tow service. car would not restart and with full electronic transmission, no ability to put into neutral. audi roadside assistance did not provide timely tow service. extremely dangerous and unsafe.
Purchased a 2018 audi q5 in july 2017. the engine lost power or acceleration when making a turn. took it to the dealer 2 times for the same problem and cannot reproduce the problem.
