on a cold day got in vehicle, and red light came on saying do not drive, power steering failure. Was able to drive later in day after vehicle warmed up. Audi syracuse said our car has an extended warranty, steering box rack issues. Car went in to check no codes were found.

This is a serious safety issue it it happens on the road, and they are not offering a recall. Totally unacceptable
