2009 audi a4 avant with 28000 miles on it when the steering became hard to steer at low speed. I drove it to the audi dealer 315 miles from my home. Told that the steering shaft had "seized" and the part was on back order. Might take two weeks or more to repair. I was given a free rental and told that they would be in touch when repaired.
I experience sever shaking of the steering wheel and wheels when turning while parked or moving at a speed below 5mph. This problem has been present since purchasing the car.
Tl*the contact owns a 2009 audi a4. The contact stated that the steering wheel shakes when making turns and while the vehicle is stopped. In addition, the exterior side mirrors are designed with aluminum interior, which projects a glare. The only object that is visible is the dashboard. He took the vehicle to three dealers and they concluded that the steering failure was caused by the control arm clip and the steering lower arm control. Replacing the parts would not guarantee that the failure would be corrected. The manufacturer stated that there was no issue with the vehicle, but offered to pay the contact $748 per month until the failure was corrected. The manufacturer refuses to put the agreement in writing. The failure mileage was 1,200 and current mileage was 2,400.
