Audi A4 2006 Steering Review #10168539 AUDI A4 2006 car safety problem was reported on June 01, 2006.AUDI A4 2006, manufactured by VOLKSWAGEN OF AMERICA, INC had a problem with STEERING . the problem is a steering wheel shake that sets up a distracting vibration at speeds between 50-60 mph. the strength of the vibration is varied as the vibrations can be strong or weak and at times, even feel as if they are not there. the danger is that there doesn't seem to be an answer as to what is causing this problem. it's related to steering of the vehicle. becomes very disconcerting creating a nervous driver as the sensation from the vibrations is one of "lack of control". tires have been rotated, rebalanced and tire pressures checked and changed multiple times to check for changes. the vibration remains. different tires result in the same type of vibration. the overall feeling is a lack of control, and the potential that maybe one day something may "snap" and the cause of the problem may be found in the worst possible way, by way of an accident. i would rather not wait until then. many other audi a4 (model b7) owners have reported the same problem with no resolution from audi at this point. it's not just a matter of driver comfort. for me, steering is vital, and how the vehicle operates is very contingent on how the steering feels and functions. something does not feel right with many of these a4's. *nm.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Audi A4 2006 problem was reported in CROWN POINT, IN.

Audi A4 2006 Exterior Lighting Review #10464335 AUDI A4 2006 car safety problem was reported on June 22, 2011.AUDI A4 2006, manufactured by VOLKSWAGEN OF AMERICA, INC had a problem with EXTERIOR LIGHTING . this appears to be a common occurrence with all audi a4's with hid xenon lighting. at approximately 50,000 miles many owners report flickering headlights and then within seconds either left or right or both headlights will stop functioning. this always seems to happen during the first 5 minutes after startup. the appropriate error will come on the audi information system "left headlamp dipped" or right. i have learned that turning the headlamp switch to off and turning the lights on again resets the issue. this may occur up to 5 times or more before the lights work normally. this can be a very dangerous situation at night in poor visibility when both lights go out. my audi dealer "audi of rochester hills" in michigan charged me $80 to inspect the situation and said i would need to spend an additional $650 approx. to fix the problem. to this date i live with the problem and read too many internet blogs about audi a4 owners that spent the $650 to find the problem not resolved. http://www.audizine.com/forum/archive/index.php/t-332613.html i am hoping that my complaint is not the first and the nhstb will do an investigation. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 65000 miles.
