Drive system malfunction audi q5 2022

Electrical System problem #1

On 02/14/2022. Car just died while waiting for cars to pass to turn at light. Dashboard started flasing "engine start system: malfunction! - please contact service" then "parking break malfunction!" then, "steering: malfunction! - you an can continue driving" panicked because was holding up traffic. After a couple minutes trying car then just started drove home and put on battery charger overnight. Hoping that's all it was. Next morning 02/15/2022 started right up early morning no issues to be concerned with was on highway doing approx 69 mph, drove approximately 42 miles then then while only driving 35 mph 4 lane highway. Again, no warnings, but while driving engine and steering, just shut down. Almost causing me to be reared and then hit on passanger side. I don't even want to think what could have happened had this happened on interstate or if my children were in the vehicle. It was a very dangerous and scary situation even happening while only doing 35 mph. This should be considered a major recall. Vehicle was towed on 02/16/22 to clearwater Audi. We did not receive vehicle back until after over 9 weeks, 04/22/22. Yesterday, 06/07/2022 sensors glitching again and being called back into dealership. I want this life threatening recall documented. There is absolutely no reason why a well cared for vehicle with less than 18,000 miles should be having these issues. We we keep losing out on time from work and driving back and forth to dealership. We need to be able to rely on the safety and integrity of this vehicle not only for the driver/passangers but for the safety of others on the road. Thank you for your time to hear our concerns.

Electrical System problem #2

Have been receiving an intermittent warning: safety malfunction for the passenger airbag. The light comes on intermittently. Comes on most often when no one is sitting in the front passenger seat. If I place a small bag (handbag, purse etc. ) on the seat sometimes the light goes off sometimes it does not. If someone is sitting in the seat the malfunction light is not present. The dealer confirmed the malfunction stating: they found the safety malfunction light is being triggered by a faulty passenger front seat pod and needs to be replaced for $2,233. Doing a quick Audi forum search have found numerous individuals with similar complaints and many have even reached out to Audi. This appears to be a significant safety issue as it calls into question the reliability of airbag operation in the case of an accident.

Electrical System problem #3

It says driver system malfunction. Day before that it says auto start and stop malfunction failure. When you are the traffic light and slow down and take a turn then the car gives kinds of couple of pushes as if the it gearbox is not able to adjust the speed automatically . You need to accelerate to keep the balance of the car. Every passenger of the car feel the same. After 2 days I started getting driver system malfunction warning. The car is not safe to drive on highways or local road as gearbox has some issues. There is a class action lawsuit for the similar problem which Audi did not address yet. Https://margarianlaw.

Electrical System problem #4

The 2nd generation Audi Q5 (roughly 2017-2021+) has a major susceptibility to immediate, catastrophic failure as evidenced from my own experience and dozens of episodes reported online. This failure typically causes a $2000-$3000 repair bill that Audi will not cover and will claim is the fault of the owner. My wife was driving the vehicle with our 5-year-old daughter in the car in the middle of the rear seat. The daughter spilled part of a 500 ml water bottle onto the seat next to her. Within 20 seconds of this happening, the car began alerting about steering malfunctions, braking malfunctions, and the windows began seizing up and down repeatedly. The car was completely inoperable. We are lucky this was on a slow city street and not on the interstate or tollway! once stopped, we no buttons generated any actions from the vehicle. We couldn't power it on, put it into neutral to be towed away, raise the windows, or perform any other function at all. The car was a useless brick. We were charged $125 for the towing service and another $2200 from Audi plano in texas. After countless conversations, even debates, with david (director Audi plano) and even Audi USA customer experience team, they refused to admit any fault in a poor design and help cover any of the costs whatsoever, and we are even still in warranty. .

There is a module under the back seat called the j533 that I am told got wet. This completely shut down the entire car as my wife and child were driving down the highway. We were very disheartened to find out that this is an out of pocket expense for a common thing to happen in the back of an SUV. . Read more...

I was about to get on the freeway when my car's electrical system failed and I got several warning lights. The braking/stop start system, lights and a few other lit up. I pulled off the road and had it towed. The dealership said water (rain) got in through my sunroof and shorted my system (warranty won't cover). There are several class action suits re. This issue already and Audi knows about it, but there's no recall and cars have stopped suddenly on the freeway. It's very dangerous.

Electrical System problem #7

Car suddenly tied while driving in city; engine/all systems shut off. It took several hours for roadside assistance to arrive, and the 1st 2 towing companies could not disengage the braking system to load onto truck! once vehicle towed to Audi dealer, their diagnosis was "gateway control module j533, water in control module, corrosion in connector, causing fuse for gateway control unit to blow" we were told by dealer that "liquid must have spilled into area behind rear seats". We have no young children, and nobody was recently sitting in rear seat. Vehicle is parked in garage and is in excellent condition; 2 years old / 24,000 miles. This was a $3,200 repair not covered under warranty. This sounds like a design defect. After several communications I had with Audi USA and local dealer, those (2) parties told me this repair would be covered as a "goodwill adjustment" not a "warranty item". . Read more...

Electrical System problem #8

I've had several issues with my vehicle when backing up and the presence going off without a reason. When backing up on several occasions, the sensors will beep and bring the vehicle to grinding stop. When I check the area, there are no vehicles, person, or objects in the path of the vehicle. Recently, when driving on the highway, the pre sense went off when no vehicles were around and slowed the vehicle down at a rapid rate. Twice when driving, the pre sense will activate and bring the vehicle to a complete stop when there are no vehicles in front, behind, or beside me.

5)establishing a bluetooth connection is intermittent with a samsung galaxy s9. Often the mmi will indicate that it can't connect. If the car is in reverse with the parking assist displaying the rear view camera, the bluetooth connection screen can suddenly appear replacing the rear view image while the car is actively backing up. The rear view camera image is no longer available while the vehicle is in rearward motion. This has happened on multiple occasions.

Electrical System problem #12

On multiple occasions when driving the Audi Q5 the pre-sense engages inappropriately (no trigger) resulting in an immediate and harsh braking of the car to a complete stop. In traffic, this poses a significant risk of a crash resulting in damage and potential bodily injury. The Audi pre-sense is designed to stop a car from an imminent crash, however an apparent flaw in the technology engages the pre-sense without totally unnecessarily (no cross traffic, at least 10 feet from a bush or other object). Not only does the unexpected and unnecessary hard auto-braking add wear and tear to the brakes and suspension, it poses a real risk of an accident as other drivers do not expect the sudden and unnecessary braking. This happens intermittently without a pattern in dry and wet weather on a flat surface or an incline. Always occurs when in reverse.

Electrical System problem #13

Vehicle traveling straight on highway at 70mph with phone plugged in to entertainment system and connected to carplay. Center screen shut off, and Audio controls unresponsive on both the dash and steering wheel. The instrument panel, which was displaying google maps, then blacked out, with only the speedometer and tach displaying. Again, controls were unresponsive. The system then restarted, similarly to initially turning on the vehicle. The "initializing map" message appeared in the instrument panel, and shortly thereafter both the center screen and instrument cluster were functioning normally, and all controls were responsive. This was especially stressful as I was expecting something else to fail but couldn't pull over.
