2007 AUDI Q7 Steering Problems

The contact owns a 2007 Audi Q7. The contact stated that while the vehicle was parked, the vehicle stalled intermittently, and failed to return to normal operation. There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was self-diagnosed by the contact, and the contact determined that the steering column lock module needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 139,000.

THE VEHICLE WAS IN PARK AS I WAS LEAVING OUT OF THE HOUSE GOING TO START THE CAR IT WOULD NOT START AND KEY HAD GOT STUCK IN IGNITION. I THEN TOWED TO HENDERSON AUDI WHERE THEY EXPLAINED THE STEERING COLUMN WAS THE REASON FOR THIS. THEY ALSO GAVE ME NOTICE THAT THEY HAVE GOTTEN THIS PROBLEM MULTIPLE OCCASIONS. STEERING COLUMNS GOING BAD IN AUDI Q7

THERE IS A STEERING LOCK PROBLEM. I WAS TOLD THAT THE STEERING COULD LOCK WHILE DRIVING. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS PROBLEM THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. THE SCANNER READS "STEERING LOCK ACTUATOR". PLEASE HAVE THIS ISSUE ADDRESSED.

WHEN IT RAIN THE MMI NAV SYSTEM SHUTS OFF AND NOW IT COMES ON THEN CUT BACK OFF, AND THE STEERING WHEEL VIBRATES /SHAKE WHEN DRIVEING ON HIGHWAY. *TR
