NHTSA Complaint #10870521 — 2005 AUDI A4

I HAVE A 2005.5 AUDI A4 2.0T QUATTRO WHICH HAS ENCOUNTERED A FAILURE OF THE ABS/ESP ELECTRICAL MODULE. THE RESULT IS FAILURE OF THE ESP SYSTEM AND THE ABS SYSTEM. THIS IS THE RESULT OF A FAULTY ELECTRICAL MODULE WHICH MANY FORUMS DESCRIBE AS A FREQUENT OCCURRENCE AND AS A RESULT A REDESIGN BY THE MANUFACTURER. THE AUDI PART IS ~$1900. BASED ON THE EXPERIENCE OF MANY OWNERS AND THE SAFETY IMPLICATIONS I WOULD EXPECT THE MANUFACTURER TO COVER THE COSTS OF CORRECTING THE DEFECT.
