NHTSA Complaint #11138859 — 2017 AUDI Q7

THE VEHICLES AUTO OFF FEATURE ACTIVATES BEFORE THE VEHICLE IS COMPLETELY STOPPED. WHEN ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE AFTER 'ALMOST' STOPPING, SAY AT AN UNPROTECTED LEFT TURN WHERE YOU'RE INCHING OUT, IT DOESN'T GO. THE ENGINE WILL BE SHUTTING DOWN AS YOU PRESS THE ACCELERATOR. IT TAKES 2-3 SECONDS FOR THE ENGINE TO START, AND YOU ARE NOW PRIMED FOR T-BONING, WHICH HAS HAPPENED ON NUMNEROUS OCCASSIONS. IT ALSO HAPPENS AT 4-WAY STOPS. OTHERS WILL HONK AT ME TO GO, AND IT WON'T. THE DEALER SAID TO PUT IT IN SPORT OR DISABLE TO FEATURE EACH TIME THE VEHICLE IS STARTED. I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO REMEMBER TO TURN OFF A FEATURE EVERY TIME. THE SAME FEATURE WORKS FLAWLESSLY IN THE A4 I OWN.
