The electronic steering system on my Audi A6 failed without warning, locking my steering wheel in place. A review of on line message boards for Audi owners indicates this is a systemic problem, and has, for some owners, actually locked their steering while driving. This did not happen to me, but prior to locking, my car instantly transitioned from steering with no issues to almost becoming undrivable before I could get to a repair shop.

This has been the third time my Audi a6 3.0t has been to the dealer since purchasing it as a cpo vehicle for a steering wheel jerk and squeak problem at any speed.

A simple google search brings up tons of owners with this issue. Please help me to bring this to Audi and to resolution. I don't feel safe driving this car as it is currently. *tr

A few times when slowly gliding to a stop (red light or stop sign) when stepping on the brake pedal it seems to go to the floor and needs to be pumped in order to stop. It's a scary situation. I cannot make it happen. It didn't seem to happen until I had the brake fluid changed during routine maintenance at Audi. I reported the problem to dealer where the work was done and they said that they redid the fluid change but the problem has re-occurred a couple of times. Also, it seems that when sitting in the car with it idling I can just about press the brake pedal to the floor.

Ref # 10652344 I cannot sit both safely and comfortably as a passenger in our 2014 a6. I am disabled and must use a cushion, not all that unusual. But the system for detecting a person in the passenger seat of the a6 is not based on the weight of the person but on the electro-static charge that the passenger's body gives off. If I sit on a cushion, I am not detected by the system.I was told that this system was put in place so that a child's carseat would not engage the airbag. No child's seat should ever be in the front seat of a car. It appears that this was a solution to a problem that really does not exist. An Audi engineer has made adjustments to my husband's car, I have been given the final decision of either forego the cushion and engage the airbag or sit without pain and forego

At 5pm on july 20, 2016 I drove my a6 to the home of my granddaughters friend, they are both 15 yrs. Old and were in the car at the time, to drop her off . I pulled into the driveway and when I put the car into park it lunged, at a fast rate, forward smashing into a railroad tie retaining wall and then flew into reverse. During this entire time my foot was on the brake and the shift was in park. As this was happening there was also a loud grinding noise coming from the car.
