Takata recall: when will these be available? It is extremely disconcerting driving around with a possibly faulty airbag that could kill me if deployed! Also there is some recall about my fuel line? Seems pretty dangerous and yet it says no remedy available. This isn't helpful.

Still driving a car with a hazardous air bag issue. Why hasn't audi been required to provide a rental until a fix is available? This should have been resolved months ago.

We received a notice from audi in april that our vehicle was recalled due to faulty air bags. After further investigation, we learned that the recall was actually announced on february 10, 2016. As of today, september 19, 2016 no remedy had been provided by audi. When we discussed options with the dealership where we bought the vehicle, audi boulder, they described the car as a "death trap". Their only solution was for us to buy a new car from them. We do not feel safe driving this car until the situation is resolved and will be exploring all options to get this matter resolved.

Takata recall. I live in a zone a high risk area with high heat and humidity (hawaii) for the takata airbag to spontaneously explode or explode as a result of an accident, and audi has, as of yet, not provided any solution for a loaner car or rental car to address the risk of injury or fatality in driving the 2011 audi q5.

On friday aug. 12 2016, I paid a visit to jim ellis audi (audi atlanta) on 5805 peachtree blvd, atlanta, ga 30341. I was looking to purchase a used 2014 sq5. I currently have a 2011 q5 2.0t. I was informed due to the takata airbag recall on my vehicle, they were only going to send the vehicle off to auction, because they did not want to be bothered with the recall and the owner jim ellis had directed them to send vehicles with the airbag recall straight to auction without fixing the recalled airbag.

Takata recall I work for a dealership we sell audi's I finally have q5's to sell at a good price to the consumer, however this recall is killing the sale because our parts department can not get replacement parts for the air bag however a honda dealer a half mile away has done over 30 replacements. How do you get the parts I have gone on line talked to several people and have no clue when we are getting replacement air bags some people say 1 to 3 years and that is not exceptable.

After my q5 has been in the service department 3 times for the same issue broke down on a very busy highway with my small child on board. My audi advisor told me to try to bring it to the dealer. We did not make it. Car had to be towed. After 2 weeks, I was advised I needed a new engine at the cost of $14,700. This is after it had been fixed several times before for the same issue. Secondly, it has a recall that has been published and audi's response to me was the recall repair is not available yet. They are however are working with takata to produce replacement parts. So, again they are jeopardizing mine and my families safety. And the oil consumption is ridiculous. No vehicle should use a quart of oil every 1000 miles. This is an unacceptable company and their responses are all scripted.
