Audi A6 2006 Electrical System Review #10234665 AUDI A6 2006 car safety problem was reported on June 10, 2008.AUDI A6 2006, manufactured by VOLKSWAGEN OF AMERICA, INC had a problem with ELECTRICAL SYSTEM . i bought a used 2006 audi a6 two months before the accident. i had been using the "keyless" option when starting and stopping the vehicle. i stopped at a library, pushed the button twice to turn off the ignition and the vehicle's electrical system. i got out of the vehicle and noticed that it was rolling forward. i attempted to stop it; i opened the driver's door and as i was getting in the door struck a trash can in the parking lot, knocking me down. the vehicle's rear wheel caught my left heel and drug me across a curb before stopping on my left foot. several men in the parking lot lifted the vehicle off my foot. i was transported to the hospital and kept for injuries to my left leg. evidently i failed to put the vehicle's transmission in "p" and had left it in "d". cars that use a physical key to start and stop the vehicle will not allow a driver to remove the key unless the vehicle's transmission has been shifted to "park." a vehicle that does not utilize a physical key, does not that built-in safety feature. five weeks later i am in physical therapy and am grateful i did not sustain more serious injuries, or that an innocent bystander was not killed by a driverless car rolling through a parking lot at a library that is frequented by children. now i am adamant about always setting the emergency brake. my concern is real: as more and more vehicles are manufactured with "keyless" ignition systems that contain no fail-safe feature to prevent "inadvertent rolling" as explained in the audi's owner's manual, i believe more injuries and deaths will be realized. in speaking with the regional representative at audi, he explained that audi publishes a "book" explaining the vehicle and what happened was totally my fault. my audi has a sensor in the passenger the seat that prevents an expensive airbag from deploying unnecessarily; how about a sensor in the driver's seat that prevents a vehicle from rolling when there is no driver? *tr .Vehicle was involved in a crash. 1 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 32500 miles.

Audi A6 2006 TiresAudi A6 2006 Tires Review #10269995 AUDI A6 2006 car safety problem was reported on Apr 01, 2009.AUDI A6 2006, manufactured by VOLKSWAGEN OF AMERICA, INC had a problem with TIRES . bubbles in sidewalls of michelin 245/40r18 michelin pilot hx mxm4 tires. with only 24,000 mi. on these tires they had multiple bubbles or bulges in the inner and outer sidewalls. these bubbles are very dangerous and can burst or be ruptured and cause a blowout at any time. if these bubbles were only on the inner sidewalls, we may never have noticed them. this means that many people are right now riding on tires that may burst at any moment and i consider this a major flaw in these and other low profile tires. this should be a national recall as many of these bubbles are not easily detected and are way too common. the tire manufactures are blaming the consumer for this problem and are knowingly allowing this problem to continue. my local audi dealer showed me a mountain of these defective tires! my tires are available for inspection and michelin is giving me a 50% discount on a new set. *tr.Audi A6 2006 problem was reported in MONROE, NY.
