Takata recall unable to even get any details on how/when to get this remidied by either the dealer or audi of america. Both say they don't know what to tell me, the dealer tells me to call audi of america and audi tells me to call the dealer. It's been information blackout from both of them. This whole saga has been going on for a very extended period of time, years now.

Tacit recall: I have tried unsuccessfully to get my closest dealership to address this issue because they are telling me that they cannot get the part. Meanwhile I'm taking a risk each time I drive my car. No one seems to care. I have talked to audi USA who put me in touch with a takata specialist and they put me back in touch with audi of melbourne florida. I get the same answer, the part is hard to get and once we receive the part they will contact me. How long must this go on. I have in chronological order the service advisor's I have talked to and when. I'am still waiting on this dealership to contact me telling they have received the part.

Takata recall - about 6 months ago, I asked the audi dealer about this recall and was told they didn't have the parts yet and they would notify me when they did. Now I've received a legal notice in the mail, regarding takata inflators. I would like assistance with getting mine replaced. I have not been in an accident, but would like to prevent problems.

Takata recall. I am been attempting to get the airbags replaced at my audi dealer in rockville, maryland for over a year. I routinely received notices on behalf of takati and the dealership, but when I called the latter they indicated they didn't have any replacements. A couple of months ago rockville audi sent another notice. I made an appt to get the airbags replaced and added some other service items while the car was in the shop. When I brought the car in they noted they had no more airbags in stock. I had the other service done to the tune of $2k. Still no airbags. I now have a teenager driving the car and am very concerned for her safety as well as mine.

I took my vehicle in for takata airbag recall since that time, I have been smelling gas on the outside of my vehicle. At first I thought it was me fueling the vehicle but the smell gets a bit louder upon driving. I took the vehicle in to dealer a week ago but they advise it was too late in the day to check. I feel like there is something that is not right. Please help

We are aware that there was a different recall that did not include our car that caused corrosion in the paneling of the car from the moon roof and it was possibly causing air bags to deploy. We have been to the dealership to be serviced and they have explained to us that there is excessive amount of corrosion in the panels of the car and also the corrosion and water leakage has destroyed the electrical components of our backup camera/system. We are wondering if this has been brought up by other people because, although our car's VIN was not included in the recall I am referring to, it seems strange that my car has these exact same issues. There is not an exact date attached to these issues because it must have been happening for quite some time. The only reason we know of the corrosion is because the dealership employee crashed into our car and they had to fix the damage. In doing so they discovered the excessive amounts of corrosion and could not explain the reasoning/cause behind it.

Takata recall, dealer has no idea when they will be able to replace the safety hazard. Issue #2 fuel fumes filling the car as you are driving and this is after the dealer claims they fixed it by putting a patch on the gas tank flange, which has not corrected the problem.

Takata recall + water inside car: audi is not fixing the takata airbag issue, anytime I ask about it to dealer, they are just saying, they dont have any fix yet and they dont know when fix will be available. I was trying to trade my car so I can buy new one but due to this issue, no one giving its real value. Recently this car also flooded with water due to their internal pipe busted and I was looking online and see they had issue with some of the models and they recalled but this model was not included and I end up spending almost $1000 to fix the issue. I don't remember exact date so just putting last year's date below.

Takata recall, my audi has the driver side airbag recall. The one that has been known to deploy and kill people. I am very upset with audi and made it very clear to them of how upset I am and they could care less. It has been over a year since audi drivers were made aware of this safety recall. Audi has given no solution to their drivers and could care less about the safety of their drivers. I was told over the summer the part would be repaired by fall. It is now february and spoke to someone today who said they have no clue when it will be in and my only option is to trade the car in for a more expensive car. This offer is only available on new cars!! What a scam!! Force clients to trade in their car, not getting fair market value for the trade, and spend more money all so we can be safe!!! I have now read an article that states these recalls may not all be replaced till 2020!! I am pregnant with twins in a car that is essentially a death trap!! We are trying to get rid of this car which should sell for 10k over what a dealership will even touch it for on trade in. It has been well over the reasonable time for this safety recall. Dealerships should be forced to buy back these cars at fair market value and deal with it!!! It would be a lot cheaper then the numerous law suits that will happen if I get in a car accident or someone else for that matter!! They are offering zero help to their customers and should be ashamed of their selves!! The fact that this has been known about since 2004 and these disgusting companies are putting peoples lives at risk is disgraceful!! This issue needs to be resolved in a timely manner and I am demanding a solution!! Buy back my car or fix it within 1 month!! Don't gamble with the lives of your customers!!

Horrified mother of 2 small children. Recently noticed when driving the vehicle, a gas/fuel smell consumes the entire car. The smell was so bad it made me sick as well as set off the carbon dioxide alarm in my garage. My toddler son sits on the side where the tank is and of course that is where the smell is the strongest. I feared that a explosion would happen in my house due to smell being so strong...we finally took the SUV in and repair company stated that I had a fuel leak. He stated that the pump had a crack in it and was spraying fuel all under the car. Repair has cost me $900 to replace the fuel pump, adaptor, and rings.
