Consumer Description

THE VW/AUDI DIESEL "FIX" IS NOT WORKING AS PROMISED AND THE VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH THIS "FIX" MAY CAUSE A SAFETY RISK TO THE PUBLIC. 2 HOURS AFTER PICKING UP MY AUDI Q7 3.0 TDI FROM THE DEALER, MY WIFE WAS DRIVING THE CAR TO PICK UP EASTER SUPPLIES WITH MY 2 YOUNG KIDS AND WHILE PULLING OUT OF BJ'S WHOLESALE STORE ONTO A 4 LANE HIGHWAY THE CARS ENGINE SUDDENLY DIED. THE CAR WAS STALLED AND LEFT UNRESPONSIVE AND SHE ALMOST GOT STRUCK BY AND LARGE TRUCK. LUCKY NOBODY WAS INJURED THIS TIME BUT THIS DIESEL "FIX" HAS MUFFLED THESE ENGINES REDUCING TORQUE AND CAUSES THEM TO STALL AT LOW RPM'S. THE DEALERS BLAME VW/AUDI AND AUDI BLAMES THE DEALERS. I'M NOT SURE WHEN SOMEONE WILL TAKE RESPONSIBILITY BUT I HOPE IT'S BEFORE SOMEONE DIES!!!!!!!
