NHTSA Complaint #11504030 — 2019 AUDI A7

On a late dark night driving back home from supper my wife's low mileage Audi suddenly died on a busy and unlit street (Champions Forest Drive). We had to call an Uber to take us home. We also had to leave the abandoned vehicle overnight. Early the next morning a Harris County Precinct 4 Constable Deputy came to our house inquiring about the status of our abandoned car. An Audi tow truck hauled the car to their North Houston Audi dealership that same early morning where we were told that the problem was due to a defective alternator. They also told us that we would have to wait 3-4 months for repairs. They have, at their small dealership, over 50 cars waiting to be repaired. We were also informed there are 40,000 to 50,000 vehicles worldwide with this exact same problem.
