AUDI A4 2014 Safety Review #10543625

AUDI A4 2014 car safety problem was reported on Sept 05, 2013.AUDI A4 2014, manufactured by Volkswagen of America, Inc. had a problem with STEERING . I BOUGHT A NEW 2014 AUDI A4 AND NOTICED IMMEDIATELY, ONCE I HIT FREEWAY SPEEDS, THE CAR WOULD NOT TRACK STRAIGHT. ONCE CENTERED IN THE LANE AND RELEASING THE STEERING WHEEL THE CAR STARTED TO DRIFT EITHER LEFT OR RIGHT IN THAT THAN 5 SECONDS. THE DIRECTION IF THE DRIFT SEEMS TO BE DEPENDENT ON THE DIRECT OF THE LAST COURSE CORRECTION. IF I HAD TO TURN LEFT TO CENTER THE CAR IN THE LANE THEN IT WOULD WANDER LEFT WHEN THE WHEEL WAS RELEASED, IF THE LAST COURSE CORRECTION WAS RIGHT THEN IT WOULD WANDER RIGHT. I BROUGHT THE CAR INTO THE DEALER AND THEY COULD NOT FIND ANY PROBLEMS MECHANICALLY AND IT HAD THE LATEST SOFTWARE FLASH. I WAS TOLD IT WAS PERFORMING AS DESIGNED. THE SENIOR TECHNICIAN WAS WELL AWARE OF THE PROBLEM BUT AUDI'S TECH CENTER COULD NOT RECOMMEND A FIX AT THIS TIME. *TR.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 15 miles.

AUDI A4 2014 car safety problem was reported on Mar 10, 2014.AUDI A4 2014, manufactured by Volkswagen of America, Inc. had a problem with STEERING . THIS VEHICLES ELECTROMECHANICAL STEERING SYSTEM WILL NOT HOLD THE VEHICLE IN A STRAIGHT LINE. THE STEERING WANDERS EXTREMELY BAD WHEN AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. WHEN MAKING STEERING CORRECTIONS THE CAR WILL CONTINUE TO TRAVEL IN THE DIRECTION OF THE LAST CORRECTION EVEN WHEN THE WHEEL IS RETURNED TO DEAD-CENTER. THIS ISSUE IS AMPLIFIED IF THERE IS ANY AMOUNT OF WIND/CROSS WINDS. THE VEHICLE WILL LITERALLY ALLOW ITSELF BE BE BLOWN ALMOST INTO THE NEXT LANE WHEN HOLDING THE WHEEL STRAIGHT AND AT TIMES WITH STRONG WIND WILL EVEN DO THIS WHEN COMPENSATING BY TURNING THE WHEEL AGAINST THE PUSH OF THE WIND. IT IS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO HOLD A LINE WITHOUT CONSTANT CORRECTIONS TO THE STEERING ANGLE. THIS ISSUE SHOULD BE CORRECTED BY AUDI VIA A FIRMWARE UPDATE OR SOME OTHER CORRECTIVE MEASURE. IN MY OPINION THIS MAKES THE VEHICLE VERY UNPREDICTABLE AND AT TIMES VERY UNSAFE TO TRAVEL ON THE HIGHWAY WITH. IF THE CAR IS HIT BY A STRONG CROSS WIND IT WILL DRIVE THE CAR "SIDEWAYS" INTO THE OPPOSITE LANE OR BREAKDOWN LANE..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 800 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):WAUBFAFL0EN. Audi A4 2014 problem was reported in FREEPORT, ME. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control. VEHICLE SPEED: 65 mph.

AUDI A4 2014 Safety Review #10574487

AUDI A4 2014 car safety problem was reported on Mar 18, 2014.AUDI A4 2014, manufactured by Volkswagen of America, Inc. had a problem with STEERING . AFTER PICKING UP MY NEW A4 AND REACHING HIGHWAY SPEED, I NOTICED THE STEERING WAS WANTING TO WANDER. AFTER GETTING HOME I WENT ONLINE AND READ OTHER OWNERS SAME COMPLAINTS ON THIS WEB PAGE. I DROVE THE CAR AGAIN YESTERDAY AND NOTICED THE AUDI DRIVE SELECT FEATURE WAS MAINLY CAUSING THE PROBLEM. IF I SELECTED THE DYNAMIC OR SPORT MODE IT WOULD STARTED TO WANDER OFF. IN THE OTHER TWO MODES IT SEEMED TO BE PRETTY NORMAL. THIS MIGHT BE OK ON THE RACE TRACK WHERE YOUR MAKING TURNS ALL THE TIME, BUT FOR NORMAL DRIVING IT STINKS. AUDI NEEDS TO LOOK INTO THIS RIGHT AWAY..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 20 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):WAUFFAFL6EN. Audi A4 2014 problem was reported in JUNCTION CITY, OH. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control. VEHICLE SPEED: 65 mph.
