Consumer Description

WHEN THE IGNITION IN THIS CAR IS TURNED OFF, IT DOES NOT NEED TO BE IN THE PARK POSITION. YOU CAN TURN THE CAR OFF IN REVERSE OR DRIVE. THIS HAPPENS TO ME ON A ROUTINE BASIS AND IN TWO INSTANCES THE CAR HAS ROLLED BACKWARD WHILE IN GEAR. I WAS FORTUNATE ENOUGH THAT NO ONE WAS INJURED BY THE VEHICLE. THIS ISSUE BECAME A KNOWN ISSUE AND WAS MODIFIED WITH AN "EXIT ASSIST" IN THE 2013 AUDI A7. I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY AUDI THAT THERE IS NO WAY TO IMPLEMENT THE EXIT ASSIST IN THE 2012 MODEL AND NO REPAIRS ARE NECESSARY. UNFORTUNATELY, I DO NOT AGREE AS I'VE WITNESSED HOW DANGEROUS THIS CAN BE.
