Consumer Description

1998 AUDI A6 QUATTRO.BOTH FRONT TRACK ARMS HAD TO BE REPLACED AT 67000 MILES. VEHICLE WAS UNDRIVEABLE. DEALER SAID CAUSE WAS WEAR AND TEAR. I DON'T THINK THAT A MAJOR COMPONENT OF THE SUSPENSION SHOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED AT THIS MILEAGE. DEALER ALSO SAID THAT THEY HAD MORE THAN A FEW CASES ON THE SAME VEHICLE WITH SIMILAR MILEAGE.
