DRIVING HOME TONIGHT MY CAR ALL OF A SUDDEN STARTED ACCELERATING (I DRIVE AN AUDI A6 1999). USING THE BRAKES I WAS ABLE TO SLOW IT DOWN ENOUGH TO GET OFF THE FREEWAY THOUGH MY BRAKES SEEMED TO BE FIGHTING AGAINST THE CAR. I ROLLED THROUGH TWO STOP SIGNS AS MY CAR WOULD NOT STOP AND LUCKILY AVOIDING THE OTHER CARS WAITING THERE I WAS ABLE TO PUT MY CAR IN PARK AND TURN OFF THE ENGINE. I WAITED TEN MINUTES OR SO AND TRIED STARTING MY CAR. THE ENGINE REVVED TO 4 TO 5000 RPMS SO, I QUICKLY SHUT IT OFF AGAIN. I WAITED AGAIN, TRIED IT ONCE MORE AND THE CAR STARTED FINE. I DROVE HOME, CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD I COULD BE SEEN ON 02/14/11. FOUR DAYS FROM NOW. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. *TR

ALL OF A SUDDEN MY ABS LIGHT CAME ON IN MY 1999 AUDI A6, AND THE BRAKE LIGHT STARTED FLASHING. I HAD A FULL LOSS OF MY ABS BRAKES ON ICY WINTER ROADS. I EVENTUALLY SLID OFF THE ROAD AND HIT A FENCE. THE ABS CONTROL MODULE ON MY CAR HAD FAILED, AND I'VE READ POSTS OF SEVERAL HUNDREDS OTHER HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. IN MY CAR IT IS A CONSTANT ERROR, AND NO-ONE BUT AUDI CAN FIX THE PROBLEM. I ALSO CONTACTED AUDI, WHICH CLAIMS THAT THE ABS SYSTEM DISABLING IS NOT A SAFETY CONCERN. WHEN THERE'S A CHANCE THAT YOUR ABS (SOMETHING YOU'VE RELIED ON FOR YEARS) SUDDENLY SHUTS DOWN BECAUSE OF A WAY TOO COMMON ERROR, IT IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN. I WAS LUCKY I ONLY GOT SOME DENTS TO MY CAR, BUT IF AUDI HAD RECALLED THESE I WOULDN'T HAVE HAD TO GET REPAIRS DONE TO MY CAR. UNFORTUNATELY SOMEONE WILL PROBABLY HAVE TO DIE BEFORE THIS SAFETY CONCERN IS TAKEN SERIOUSLY AND AUDI WILL DO A RECALL. *TR

I DRIVE A 1999 AUDI A6 AVANT WHICH IS OUR PRIMARY FAMILY CAR. WHILE DRIVING THE CAR ONE DAY, THE CAR'S ABS WARNING INDICATOR LIGHT COMES ON AND STAYS ILLUMINATED UNTIL THE CAR IS SHUT OFF. AT THE SAME TIME THE RED BRAKE WARNING LIGHT FLASHES ON AND OFF UNTIL THE CAR IS TURNED OFF. THIS SAME THING HAPPENS EVERY TIME THE CAR IS TURNED ON. DESPITE THE FLASHING WARNING LIGHTS, THE BRAKES OPERATED NORMALLY ON DRY PAVEMENT. HOWEVER, ON WET, SNOWY PAVEMENT THE ABS DID NOT WORK WHEN BRAKING FOR A STOP. I CALLED THE AUDI DEALER TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT FOR THIS PROBLEM (AND OTHER ISSUES) BECAUSE I WAS CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF THE BRAKES ESPECIALLY DURING THE WINTER. THE PERSON I SPOKE WITH AT THE AUDI DEALERSHIP DID NOT SOUND ALARMED OR VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE WARNING LIGHTS FOR THE ABS AND THE BRAKE. I ASKED AGAIN ABOUT THE SAFETY ISSUE, AND THE PERSON SAID I WOULD BE FINE AND MADE AN APPOINTMENT FOR ME FOR TWO AND A HALF WEEKS LATER. WE DROVE THE CAR CAREFULLY FOR THE NEXT TWO AND A HALF WEEKS UNTIL OUR APPOINTMENT AT AUDI. BEFORE EVEN LOOKING AT THE CAR, AUDI SERVICE DESK SAID THAT THE WARNING LIGHTS WERE PROBABLY, MORE THAN LIKELY THE ABS CONTROL MODULE. I WAS TOLD IT WOULD COST $975 TO REPLACE THE ABS CONTROL MODULE. I DIDN'T HAVE THE DEALERSHIP REPLACE THAT ABS MODULE YET BECAUSE I NEEDED OTHER REPAIRS FIRST. AFTER RESEARCHING THE ABS CONTROL MODULE ONLINE AND AFTER TALKING TO A FEW PEOPLE I REALIZE THAT IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM FOR THIS MAKE AND MODEL CAR AND FOR OTHER AUDI CARS BUT THERE IS NO RECALL CAMPAIGN IN EFFECT FOR THE BATCH OF FAULTY ABS MODULES. I LIVE IN MINNESOTA WHERE THERE IS POTENTIAL TO BE SNOW 5 MONTHS OUT OF THE YEAR. I BOUGHT THIS CAR USED BECAUSE OF ALL THE SAFETY FEATURES THAT ARE USEFUL IN SNOWY WEATHER. TO HAVE THE ABS NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY AND THEN TO REALIZE THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM IN THIS MAKE OF CAR SEEMS TO ME TO BE A SAFETY ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE ADDRESSED BY THE MANUFACTURE. AUDI SHOULD RECALL THE ABS MODULE. THANKS. *TR

RELAYED THAT THIS IS A COMMON FAILURE ITEM AND UNFORTUNATELY THE COST FOR REPLACEMENT IS NEARLY $1000.

THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT MANY AUDI A6 OWNERS HAVE EXPERIENCED. THIS OCCURS AT RANDOM AND THE DURATION VARIES. WHILE WARNING LIGHTS ARE ON, BRAKING PERFORMANCE IS DIMINISHED AS EBD IS DISABLED AND THERE IS NO ABS. MOST OWNERS INCLUDING ME HAVE BEEN TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT IT'LL COST ABOUT $2000 TO FIX THE ISSUE. THEY SEEM TO BE SAYING THE ABS CONTROL MODULE IS THE ONE THAT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. I FEEL SINCE ITS A WIDE SPREAD PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE AND IT INVOLVES THE ABS SYSTEM WHICH COULD CAUSE AN INCIDENT IF ONE DID NOT KNOW THE EFFECTS WHEN THEY EXPERIENCE THE PROBLEM; THIS ISSUE HAS TO BE REPORTED TO THE NHTSA. *AK

TWO VEHICLES IN FRONT OF MY CAR ON HIGHWAY CAME TO A STOP; I APPLIED BRAKES, PRESSING ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR OF THE CAR, AND NOTHING HAPPENED - THE CAR DID NOT SLOW DOWN AND THE ABS DID NOT ENGAGE, DESPITE THERE BEING LOOSE SAND AND SALT ON THE ROAD SURFACE. I REAR-ENDED THE VEHICLES RESULTING IN SUBSTANTIAL DAMAGE TO MY CAR (OVER $10,000 TO REPAIR) AND THE CAR I HIT (UNKNOWN COST COVERED BY MY INSURANCE COMPANY). MY CAR SPENT 2 MONTHS IN THE SHOP HAVING THE ACCIDENT DAMAGE REPAIRED. WHEN I PICKED IT UP, I TESTED THE BRAKES AND THEY WERE VERY "SOFT" - I HAD TO PRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR TO GET THE CAR TO STOP, EVEN THOUGH I WAS GOING NO MORE THAN 10 MPH. THE ABS DID NOT ENGAGE THAT TIME EITHER. I RETURNED THE CAR TO THE DEALER TO FIX THE BRAKES. THEY KEPT IT ALL DAY AND TOLD ME THAT NOTHING NEEDED TO BE DONE. HOWEVER, WHEN I TESTED THE BRAKES AGAIN, IN THE SAME SPOT I HAD TESTED THEM BEFORE, THE BRAKES WORKED WELL AND THE ABS ENGAGED. ON OCTOBER 31, 2003, THE DEALERSHIP (BERNARDI AUDI, 521 WORCESTER ROAD, NATICK MA; 508-651-9980) SERVICED THE VEHICLE AND SUPPOSEDLY REPLACED THE FONT AND REAR BRAKE PADS AND ROTORS.*AK

(1) ABS/BRAKE LIGHT INDICATORS APPEARED ON THE DASH. THE AMBER (ABS LIGHT) STAYS ON WHILE THE RED BRAKE LIGHT BLINKS. AN AUDIBLE ALERT SOUNDS FOR 3 SECONDS, BUT THE LIGHTS STAY ON. THIS INDICATES THAT THE ABS CONTROL MODULE IS MALFUNCTIONING, THUS LOOSING ABS ABILITIES. (2) AFTER RESEARCHING THROUGH AUDI FORUMS (AUDIWORLD.COM OR AUDIFORUMS.COM), I DISCOVERED THIS IS A COMMON OCCURRENCE IN AUDI'S (1997-2001), INCLUDING A4'S, A6'S AND VW PASSATS. IT IS SPECULATED THAT WATER OR MOISTURE SEEKS INTO THE MODULE COMPUTER BOARD, THUS SHORTS IT OUT. IT WAS CONFIRMED BY MY AUDI DEALER THAT MY ABS UNIT IS DEFECTIVE. I RECEIVED A $2,400 ESTIMATE TO HAVE IT REPAIRED. (3) NOTHING, TOO EXPENSIVE- MY BIGGER ISSUE HERE IS SAFETY- MOST AUDI/VW OWNERS AREN'T AWARE THAT THIS IS A RECURRING/FREQUENT PROBLEM IN THEIR CARS, BECAUSE IT'S USUALLY CAUGHT UNDER WARRANTY. IF YOU?RE LIKE ME AND HAVE AN EXPIRED WARRANTY YOU ARE PAYING THROUGH THE NOSE. I CALLED AUDI OF AMERICA TO ALERT THEM ABOUT THIS DEFECT AND ASKED THEM TO RECALL IT NATIONALLY- THEY SAID NO BECAUSE MY CAR IS OLDER. TO THAT POINT, WHY DID THEY RECALL THE THROTTLE BODY, LOWER CONTROL ARMS AND A PLASTIC WIRE PROTECTOR ON 12/15/04 IF MY CAR IS SO-CALLED "OLDER?" AGAIN THEY CAN'T JUSTIFY IT. THAT LEADS ME TO BELIEVE THAT IT WOULD COST THEM TOO MUCH MONEY! I AM HOPING THAT SOMEONE DOESN'T GET INJURED BECAUSE OF MONEY OR IT TAKES AN ACCIDENT TO GET THIS (ABS MODULE) DEFECT RECALLED, THEN I AM SURE AUDI WILL END UP PAYING 10X MORE. PLEASE MAKE THIS RECALL HAPPEN AS WELL AS ASK AUDI TO INFORM THEIR OWNERS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. *JB
