Consumer Description

UNEXPLAINED ACCELLERATION FOR 1/2 MILE SERIOUS SAFETY WHILE NO ONE WAS INJURED OR PHYSICALLY HARMED, THEY COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY INJURED. IN FACT MY WIFE WHO WAS DRIVING THE CAR WAS ABLE TO AVOID A LOADED SCHOOL BUS BEFORE SHE WAS ABLE TO FIND A SPOT TO PULL OFF THE ROAD AND DISABLE THE VEHICLE. CAR WAS TOWED TO AUDI DEALER. DEALER UNABLE TO DETERMINE WHAT CAUSED ACCELLERATION. ACTUALLY THE REPRESENTATIVE IMPLIED THAT IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE FOR THIS TO HAPPEN WITHOUT A COMPUTER CODE. THIS IS A BRAND NEW VEHICLE APPROXIMATELY 1 WEEK OLD. PRIMARY DRIVER IS JOAN ASHMAN WHO IS AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE AGAIN. SINCE SERVICE HAS NOT FOUND ANYTHING THERE IS NOTHING ELSE THEY CAN DO. DEAL MANAGEMENT HAS NOT ADDRESSED THE ISSUE WITH US. I HAVE CALLED AN LEFT A MESSAGE FOR GENERAL MANAGER TO CALL. I HAVE CONTACTED AUDI CUSTER RELATIONS AND FILLED A REPORT. THEY HAVE INDICATED THAT IT MAY TAKE SOME TIME TO INVESTIGET TO RESOLVE OUR SAFTEY CONCERN WITH THIS PARTICULAR VEHICLE.*AK
