Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING AND NOTICED THE CAR WAS IDLING RUFF. SO I PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL AND IT STALLED THEN I RESTARTED IT THEN NOTICED MASSIVE POWER LOSS. SO I DROVE HOME AND CALLED FOR A TOW TO THE NEAREST DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME THE CAR HAD TWO BLOWN TURBOS AND ITS GOING TO COST ME $10.000.00. AND MY WARRANTY WON'T COVER IT BECAUSE ITS ON THE TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN BOARD AND AUDI SHOULD HAVE TO TAKE CARE OF THERE OWN PROBLEMS KNOWING ITS AN ISSUE. AND I ABSOLUTELY FEEL THE SAME ESPECIALLY FOR HOW MUCH YOU SPEND ON THIS CAR AND AUDI'S REPUTATION. IF THEY DON'T EVER RECALL THIS ISSUE I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER AUDI AGAIN, AND I WAS JUST TRYING TO GET MY MOTHER TO BUY ONE.
