Consumer Description

I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO AUDI AND HAD IT PARTIALLY FIXED. THEY STATED THERE WERE TWO PARTS TO THIS PHASE. I COMPLETED PHASE 1; HOWEVER, THE RECALL HAS NOT BEEN LIFTED BECAUSE PHASE 2 HAS NOT BEEN RELEASED BY AUDI TO THE DEALERSHIPS YET. I WAS TOLD IT WOULD HAPPEN LATE THIS WINTER. THE PROBLEM I FACE IS THAT I HAVE TO SHIP MY POV TO GERMANY FOR A MILITARY ASSIGNMENT THERE. I NEED TO HAVE NO RECALLS ON MY VEHICLE IN ORDER TO DO SO. PLEASE ASSIST. THANK YOU.
