AUDI OF AMERICA

MICHIGAN

I AM A PROUD OWNER OF A 2003 AUDI A4 1.8T AUTOMOBILE WITH 58000 MILES ON IT. THE CAR IS EXACTLY TWO YEARS OLD AND HAS BEEN NOW IN THE SHOP 3 TIMES WITH PROBLEMS. NOW MY TIMING BELT HAS BROKEN WITH A COST OF CLOSE TO $2000 TO REPAIR AND IS NOT UNDER WARRANTY.

THE ALSO WANT TO CHARGE ME $800 DOLLARS TO JUST REMOVE A CYLINDAR TOO SEE IF THERE ARE ANY OTHER BROKEN PARTS IN WHICH THE COST TO FIX THIS CAR WILL BE EVEN MORE. $800 JUST TO LOOK AT THE CAR. I HAVE BEEN TOLD HOW GREAT THE CAR IS AND HOW TROUBLE FREE THE CAR AND YOUR DRIVING EXPERIENCE WILL BE. I HAVE NOT EVEN HAD 19,000 MILES BETWEEN BREAK DOWNS. MY CAR BROKE DOWN IN APRIL SO THAT IS NOT EVEN 5 MONTHS AGO.

NOTHING IS GETTING DONE TO MY CAR PENDING A REVIEW BY AUDI OF PAST PROBLEMS AND REVIEW OF MY REPAIR HISTORY. I HAVE HAD JAPANESE CARS WITH OVER 100,000 MILES ON THEM WITH THE ONLY SERVICE BEING DONE ARE OIL CHANGES AND TIRES. I NEVER HEARD OF TIMING BELTS BREAKING AT 58000 MILES THE USUALLY LAST UP TO 75-80000 MILES OR MORE.

I HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS WITH HTIS CAR AND AM VERY UNHAPPY AND THE CONSUMER ADVOCATE MADE ME FEEL LIKE HEY YOU ARE IN TROUBLE AND AM ON YOUR OWN. I FEEL MY CAR ENGINE IS A LEMON. THE REST OF THE CAR I LOVE. I HOPE THE AUDI FAMILY WILL COME TO BE MY FRIEND AS I HAVE SUPPORTED YOU GUYS!!!!

REGARDS,
