2009 Audi A3 owner complaints

Takata recall and Audi informed me one year ago but no response from Audi dealership for replacement.

Takata recall I received my recall notice in february and have not heard anything further from NHTSA or Audi. When will there be a solution to this? My wife received a call from our Audi dealer yesterday during which they said that the defect could not be repaired. I can't believe that this is the case. Doesn't Audi have to replace the defective component? I have no interest in purchasing a new car without significant compensation for its cost.

My air bag is on the recall list!! Why won't Audi replace my air bag now for free before it kills me or my husband?

Transmission problem. Mechatronic controller has gone bad. Intermittent problem. Dsg will not engage to go into reverse. Transmission acts as if it is in neutral. When placed in park, if auto is on an incline of any sort, the vehicle will and has rolled forward approximately 10 inches. The concern is that if the car will not go into reverse on command, the occupants may not be able to get out of the way an oncoming mass. *tr

I have an 2009 Audi a3 2.0t with an automatic transmission. After about 20-30 minutes of driving the care the transmission starts exhibiting strange behavior. After coming to a full stop the car lurches forward after letting the foot off the brake. It makes a clunking sound and the gear indicator goes from the gear number displan to p-r-n-d indicator and then back to the gear number display. If you leave your foot off the brake, the car will repeatedly jerk forward. If you slowly accelerate the car is extremely jerky and not smooth like it should be. This makes for dangerous parking in a garage or where there are obstacles in the area. I am afraid to park it. The problem occurs everytime I drive the care for 20-30 minutes. *tr

When in low gears, every action (deceleration and acceleration) are extremely "jerky". When coming to a stop audible "clunk"s can be heard from the engine area, and when attempting to fully stop the car jerks forward into first gear. The reverse and drive gears on the automatic transmission sometimes partially engage, or do not fully engage at all. On hills, the transmission has these issues as well.

DSG transmission will abruptly shift down to first gear and would not respond in any other gear. The shift indicator in the dashboard will light up and blink and the check engine light will come on. There are no warnings before this happens and it will happen at random times. It has happen in separate occasions while traveling at different speeds. When this happens while traveling it creates a dramatic reduction on vehicle speed almost causing the vehicle traveling behind me to rear end me. Once stopped the car will only engage when put on D and will stay at a low gear causing the RPMs to red line even at low speeds making it unsafe to drive due to only being able to reach 5 to 10 MPH.

vehicle switched into neutral and accelerated Unable to control or stop Crashed into bush 2014 AUDI checked said no issuue Vehicle switches gear unexpectedly on highway and slows and drags Audi checked Said normal 9/3 2022 foot on break to a full stop at a light Anothet auto in front Audi suddenly switched gear and started to accelerate Would not stop Crashed into car in front Gear stayed frrozen in neutral for a few mimutes.

Transmission goes into neutral while at highway speeds. Engine rpms jump to redline while car is in neutral, then goes back into gear. Has happen several times while on the highway. Transmission also kicks down to lowest gear when coming at stop, jerking the car while braking.

Driving into a small lot to park. Foot on brake and moving at at low speed came to stop and auto suddenly started to speed and sounded like the car was in neutral. Auto jumped a small curb and went into some bushes. In past when driving auto shifted to sport gear without warning and slowed down. Dealer checked and could not find a problem similar recall with 2009 a3 but not my VIN. *tr

While driving, all power to the engine just suddenly turns off without warning. It has happened a few times while on the freeway and almost caused an accident, as a couple semis kept me from pulling off the road before losing significant speed that cause merging to be very difficult. Upon trying to restart, one time the car restarted fine while another it took numerous tries with a esp fault error resulting, then it suddenly worked fine again, until it happened another time.

Brand new 2009 Audi a3 with 200 miles completely failed in the highway in las vegas, nv. I purchased the vehicle brand new approximately one week prior to this incident. I am traveling on the highway in the middle lane at around 60/65 MPH, the transmission (dsg) started making chunk noises and the car started to jerk, then the engine completely shut down in the middle of the highway!! Not to mention my youngest sister (10 years old) was with me. I couldn't restart the engine and I couldn't steer and/or shift without pressing on the break. I ended up in a complete stop in the middle of the highway hoped no one would hit me and thank god it didn't. I then quickly shift the gear back to "p" and fortunately the engine started again so I could get out of this hell zone. This is truly unbeli

Audi / vw had a class action lawsuit on this cars timing chain and timing chain tensioner. The extended warranty has expired. Mine broke at 95000 miles. So I'm sure there are other Audi owners that don't even know this happened. This is costing me over 1000$. And should of been a full recall, not this other bs. It is leaving us high and dry. I hope you can do something about this. Thanks

The contact owns a 2009 Audi A3. The contact stated while driving approximately 20 MPH, the traction control and ABS control module warning lights were illuminated. The local dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was contacted but no additional assistance was provided. The contact stated that the failure was related to NHTSA Campaign Number: 16V913000 (Service Brakes, Hydraulic, Electronic Stability Control). The failure mileage was approximately 67,000.

The ABS control module has failed and I've read this is an ongoing issue with all 2009 models from Audi to Volkswagen tsi engine models. The vehicle had ABS steering and brake lights come on within the cluster. When braking the brakes locked up causing me to lose control. Thankfully I was not going fast it didn't crash into anything.

Same issue as the vw tiguan. Fuse f16 in the fuse box in the engine bay. Vw issued a recall.
