Audi S4 2011 Suspension Review #10453165

AUDI S4 2011 car safety problem was reported on Mar 23, 2012.AUDI S4 2011, manufactured by VOLKSWAGEN OF AMERICA, INC had a problem with SUSPENSION . i recently purchased a brand new 2011 audi s4 sedan and had a suspension and/or alignment issue which caused the front driver side tire blow out on the highway, resulting in temporary loss of control. i got three professional opinions (including that of a certified audi technician) and all agreed this was caused by an issue with the suspension, causing the inside edge of the tire to wear prematurely and split open. this instance is abnormal because the tread was well above the treadwear indicators. this vehicle has always been serviced according to the factory specified service plan for my vehicle, by audi certified technicians. this plan specifically states that the technicians are supposed to inspect tires for wear and damage at the 25 thousand mile service (to ensure safety, reliability, and value of the vehicle). however, my service advisors failed to notify me of the abnormal tire wear, and the potential safety risk. had this issue been brought to my attention, this incident could have been avoided. both front tires showed this abnormal wear, so i have since replaced all four tires. however, if this suspension problem is not solved, the new tires will also wear abnormally and split open, putting lives in danger. the vehicle is at the audi dealer waiting for the issue to be identified and resolved. *tr.Mileage was 27000 miles.

AUDI S4 2011 car safety problem was reported on Oct 09, 2012.AUDI S4 2011, manufactured by VOLKSWAGEN OF AMERICA, INC had a problem with POWER TRAIN . this issue concerns my audi 2011 s4, a car that i took delivery on in april, 2011. i have had numerous problems with the car since the delivery, however, it is a safety concern that has caused this specific filing. the problem seems to be with the dsg transmission. on occasion, the car will struggle and "buck" in low gears at a very slow speed (or froma complete stop) upon acceleration. this does not happen often but it has happened several times since taking delivery. i have tried addressing the problem with audi coral springs in the past but because i cannot duplicate the problem, they are unable to help. consequently, i have not been able to always drive the car in the manner that i would like to. however, on october 9, 2012, the problem happened again, only this time, it occurred while attempting to merge into traffic. i was in a merge lane, traveling approx 3-5 mph and when the opportunity arose, i accelerated into the traffic. at that precise moment, the car bucked violently (as it has done in the past) and i had to lift off the throttle to correct the issue. let me express that i in no way am attempting to cause problems for audi. i am only concerned for my safety. its quite conceivable that when my car has this trouble while merging into traffic that i could get hit from behind as i must immediately lift off the accelerator to resolve the issue. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 8860 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):WAUBGAFLXBA. Audi S4 2011 problem was reported in COCONUT CREEK, FL. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control.

AUDI S4 2011 car safety problem was reported on June 19, 2014.AUDI S4 2011, manufactured by Volkswagen of America, Inc. had a problem with POWER TRAIN . i currently drive a 2011 audi s4 dsg automatic vehicle. the car bucks intermittently when going from stop to 1st-2nd-3rd gear or vice versa. it usually occurs in slow traffic and when the car/transmission has been on for awhile. the car was taken to audi for repair and the software and adaptability was updated. this helped smooth out the shifts but the car still continued to buck at times (especially in dynamic mode), the car was taken back to audi again, but the technicians did not find any problems when driving the car. the problem seems to be a faulty mechatronic unit which is known to fail in early 2010-2011 s4's. multiple people have gone through the same problems until this unit was replaced. audi of america has been contacted and did not offer any solution at this time..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 49000 miles.
