Consumer Description

REFERENCE: 2013 AUDI A4 QUATTRO. THE STEERING HAS SUDDENLY BECOME VERY STIFF. STEERING WHEEL WILL NOT RETURN TO CENTER AFTER MAKING A 90 DEGREE TURN ON URBAN STREETS. I MUST TURN IT BACK MANUALLY. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING NON-POWER STEERING VEHICLES AND POWER STEERING VEHICLES FOR 60+ YEARS. THIS IS NOT THE WAY THAT ANY STEERING SYSTEM THAT I HAVE EVER DRIVEN WORKS. I CONSIDER THIS A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE THAT SHOULD WARRANT A RECALL OF ALL AUDI VEHICLES SO AFFECTED.
