Consumer Description

On Thanksgiving Day I received a warning on my display: "Electrical system: malfunction! Please contact Service." The next day I contacted Ellis Audi in Atlanta and was able to drive about 3 miles to take the car to them. At the end of the day they said I needed a new Alternator/Generator and the car should not be driven. They said the part was on backorder and they already had about 11 cars needing the same part. Since then they received 7 parts but now have about 20 cars on their lot requiring repair.
