NOTICED PASSENGER SIDE FLOOR BOARD IS SOAKED AFTER IT RAINS. THIS HAPPENS IF IT IS PARKED OR IF YOUR DRIVING. ALL DRAINS ARE CLEAR AND WHEN DROPPING HEADLINER, NOTICED A "WATER" WAY RUNNING DOWN TOWARDS PASSENGER PILLAR, ON PILLAR AIRBAG AND DOWN TO FLOOR BOARD. DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THAT MANY OTHER 2010 AUDI Q5'S HAVE THE SAME ISSUE AND IMPLIED THIS IS PROBABLY WHY MY SUNROOF MOTOR IS NOT FUNCTIONING ANYMORE DUE TO WATER GETTING IN AND THEY QUOTED ME $2500 TO FIX THIS MANUFACTURE FLAW. IF MY VEHICLE HASN'T BEEN IN A WRECK AND THE SUNROOF FRAME IS BAD, WHY ISN'T THERE A RECALL FOR THIS?

I HAVE A 2010 AUDI Q5 THAT IS LEAKING GAS ON THE GROUND WHILE ENGINE IS RUNNING WHILE SITTING STILL OR DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD.. I REMOVED THE PASSENGER REAR SEAT WHICH IS DIRECTLY ON TOP OF WHERE THE LEAK IS COMING FROM. I THEN REMOVED THE ACCESS PANEL FOR THE FUEL PUMP . GAS WAS SITTING ON TOP OF THE FUEL PUMP IN PUDDLES. I DECIDED TO START THE CAR WITH THE ACCESS PANEL REMOVED TO SEE WHERE EXACTLY THE LEAK WAS COMING FROM AND HOW BIG OF LEAK IT WAS. UPON STARTING THE ENGINE GAS SPRAYED DIRECTLY OUT OF THE TOP OF THE FUEL PUMP'S WHITE PLASTIC DOME TOP, NOT THE FUEL PUMP FLANGE. PERIMETER. IT IS A LARGE LEAK, IT SPRAYS LIKE A GEYSER UNHINDERED HITTING THE TOP OF THE ACCESS PANEL AND RUNNING ONTO THE GROUND. YOU CAN SEE VISIBLE CRACKS IN THE TOP OF THE FUEL PUMP. MY GAS MILEAGE WHICH WAS 21 MPG PER TANK IS NOW14 MPG ON LAST FILL UP SO MY GUESS IS ABOUT 7 GALLONS OF GAS LEAKS ONTO THE GROUND PER FILL UP. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE IN THIS CONDITION AND THE FUMES ARE OVERWHELMING IN THE CABIN OF THE VEHICLE AND IF YOU ROLL DOWN THE WINDOW THE SMELL GETS WORSE...IN THE PICS UPLOADED YOU CAN SEE THE SPRAY AND VISIBLE CRACKS.

I NOTICED A FUEL SMELL EMANATING FROM THE REAR SEAT AREA ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE, A 2010 AUDI Q% WITH 104,500 MILES. THIS WAS NOTICEABLE BOTH WHILE DRIVING AND STATIONARY WHILE PARKED IN THE GARAGE. AFTER FURTHER INVESTIGATION I VISUALLY SAW FUEL DROPS AROUND THE REAR PASSENGER SEAT ON THE BOTTOM OF THE VEHICLE. I VISITED THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY SAFETY WEBSITE AND FOUND A RECALL THAT MATCHED THE SYMTOMS I DESCRIBED ABOVE. I CONTACTED MY AUDI DEALER AND THEY INDICATED A FIX FOR THAT RECALL WAS COMPLETED IN 2016 ON MY VEHICLE. I AM NOT SURE WHAT WAS ACCOMPLISHED BUT IT SEEMS IT DIDN'T WORK. I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY THE AUDI SERVICE DEPARTMENT THAT THE FUEL FLANGE AND VARIOUS OTHER ITEMS WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED. AS THIS IS A SAFETY ITEM AND THE CAR CAN'T BE DRIVEN UNTIL REPAIRED I AUTHORIZED THE REPAIR AT SUBSTANTIAL EXPENSE. I FEEL AS IF A TEMPORARY FIX WAS COMPLETED IN 2016 AND NOT A PERMANENT FIX WHICH SHOULD HAVE BEEN ACCOMPLISHED.

INTERIM NOTICES WILL SENT IN EARLY NOVEMBER 2016. A SECOND NOTICE WILL BE SENT WHEN PARTS ARE AVAILABLE. OWNERS MAY CONTACT AUDI CUSTOMER SERVICE AT 1-800-253-2834. VOLKSWAGEN'S NUMBER FOR THIS RECALL IS 20W9. OUR BACK SEAT IS FULL OF FUEL. THE PUMP CRACKED. THE LOCAL AUDI SHOP SAID THE RECALL HAS BEEN DONE, BUT AFTER I INVESTIGATED THE AUDI DEALERSHIP THAT DID THE RECALL, THEY MENTIONED ONLY A PROTECTIVE KIT WAS PUT ON.

MY VEHICLE WAS RECALLED FOR A FUEL PUMP ISSUE WHICH WAS REPAIRED WITH TAPE IN 2018. THE FUEL PUMP IS NOW LEAKING FUEL CAUSING A FUEL SMELL IN THE VEHICLE AS WELL AS IN MY GARAGE AND HOUSE WHILE THE CAR IS PARKED IN THE GARAGE. WHEN I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO BE INSPECTED AND REPAIRED I WAS TOLD THE ORIGINAL REPAIR WAS NOT SUBSTANTIAL ENOUGH TO FIX THE ORIGINAL DEFECT. AUDI REPORTS NO NEW RECALLS ON THE VEHICLE AND THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON A SMALL SELECTION OF VEHICLES IN THE ORIGINAL RECALL. THIS IS A HAZARD AND COULD CAUSE A FIRE. ALL VEHICLES IN THE ORIGINAL RECALL SHOULD BE RECALLED AGAIN AND REPAIRED PROPERLY, WITH MORE THAN TAPE.

RECALL 20W9 - IN LATE JULY OF 2017 I NOTICED A VERY STRONG SMELL OF FUEL IN MY CAR. I TOOK IT TO MY LOCAL REPAIR SHOP ON 8/1/19 AS I COULD NO LONGER TOLERATE THE STRONG SMELL AND BECAME VERY WORRIED OF MY CAR EXPLODING. THEY FOUND THAT MY FUEL FLANGE WAS BROKEN. I DID NOT KNOW THERE WAS AN OPEN RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM. IT WAS ONLY AFTER I RECEIVED A RECALL ON MY AIRBAG IN DECEMBER 2018, AND TOOK IT AS INSTRUCTED TO MY AUDI DEALER, THAT I WAS TOLD THERE WAS AN OPEN RECALL. I CALLED AUDI AND ASKED WHAT I NEEDED TO DO AS I ALREADY HAD THE REPAIR MADE. I WAS TOLD AUDI WOULD REIMBURSE ME. I THEN RECEIVED A DENIAL LETTER FROM AUDI DATED 2/1/19. I CALLED AUDI AND WAS TOLD I WAS DENIED BECAUSE I DIDN'T TAKE IT TO A DEALERSHIP THAT WAS WITHIN 15 MILES FROM MY HOME. I EXPLAINED TO THEM THAT WHAT SHE SAID WAS THE DENIAL IS DIFFERENT THAN WHAT WAS STATED IN THE LETTER. THE DENIAL LETTER STATES "THE REIMBURSEMENT PERIOD FOR THIS SAFETY RECALL HAS ENDED." YOU WILL NOTE ON THE TOP OF THE INVOICE I SUBMITTED THAT I DID NOT TAKE IT TO HAVE THE FUEL FLANGE REPAIRED (WHICH WAS THE RECALL). IT CLEARLY STATES MY REASON FOR CONCERN - CK FOR GAS FUMES/REAR HATCH AREA . SHE THEN CALLED ME BACK ON 2/14/19 AND STATED SHE DID "INTERNAL RESEARCH" AND THE REIMBURSEMENT PERIOD FOR THIS RECALL HAD ENDED. THEY WOULD NOT BE REIMBURSING ME. SHE STATED I COULD APPEAL TO MY LOCAL AUDI DEALER THAT I HAD TO HAVE AN EMERGENCY REPAIR AND WHY I COULDN'T TAKE IT TO MY LOCAL AUDI DEALER TO HAVE THIS ISSUE FIXED. I THEN STARTED RECEIVING EMAILS AND NOTICES IN THE MAIL TO HAVE THIS ISSUE FIXED AT MY LOCAL AUDI DEALER. HOWEVER, IT WAS NOT UNTIL AFTER I HAD MY AIR BAG RECALL REPLACED THAT I STARTED RECEIVING THESE NOTICES. I HAD NO IDEA THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM. I HAD NO CHOICE AT THE TIME TO HAVE THE REPAIR MADE AT MY NORMAL REPAIR SHOP AS IT CAUSED A SIGNIFICANT HAZARD TO ME.

A FEW WEEKS AGO, MY WIFE AND I OBSERVED WATER ON DRIVER'S SIDE OF THE DASHBOARD AFTER IT RAINED. I THEN CHECKED THE FLOOR CARPET IN THE DRIVER'S FOOT WELL -IT WAS WET. AFTER REMOVING THE DRIVER'S SIDE GRAB HANDLES, A-PILLAR TRIM AND THE VISOR IN ORDER TO LOWER THE HEADLINER, I OBSERVED WATER DRIPPING AT THE JUNCTION OF THE DRAIN HOSE TO THE SUNROOF. I ALSO OBSERVED MORE WATER LEAKING INTO THE CAR BETWEEN THE TOP SIDE OF THE WINDSHIELD AND THE BODY OF THE CAR. I ALSO NOTICED THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE CURTAIN AIRBAG WAS WET FROM THE WATER DRIPPING FROM THE SUNROOF / DRAIN HOSE CONNECTION. ON 10/15/18, I CALLED AUDI OF AMERICA AND INFORMED THE REPRESENTATIVE OF THE PROBLEMS WITH THE VEHICLE THE REPRESENTATIVE TOOK MY INFORMATION AND SAID, "SOMEBODY WILL GET IN TOUCH WITH YOU". ON 10/17/18, I RECEIVED A PHONE CALL FROM MRS. SHEMONIA. I INFORMED MRS. SHEMONIA THAT OUR Q5 HAS LEAKING SUNROOF DRAIN THAT CAUSES WATER TO DRAIN OVER THE DRIVER'S SIDE CURTAIN AIRBAG, WHICH MAY PREVENT THE AIRBAG FROM DEPLOYING PROPERLY. I ALSO INFORMED MRS. SHEMONIA V. THAT THE WINDSHIELD IS LOSE WHICH CASES WATER TO LEAK INTO THE CAR AS WELL. LOSE WINDSHIELD IS ALSO A SAFETY DEFECT BECAUSE IT MAY PREVENT THE PASSENGER'S SIDE FRONT AIRBAG FROM DEPLOYING PROPERLY. MRS. SHEMONIA STATED THAT AUDI DECLINED TO PROVIDE ANY ASSISTANCE WITH REPAIRING THESE TWO PROBLEMS SINCE THE Q5 IS OUT OF THE FACTORY WARRANTY PERIOD. I CALLED BELL AUDI AND SPOKE TO SERVICE ADVISOR TOM WHO STATED THAT HE WAS AWARE OF THE LEAKING SUNROOF DRAINS DUE TO DRY ROT AND THAT THE REPAIR WOULD COST ABOUT $800.00. ACCORDING TO TOM, THE WINDSHIELD REPAIR WOULD COST $1200.00 BECAUSE "THE OLD WINDSHIELD CANNOT BE TAKEN OUT WITHOUT BREAKING IT SO A NEW WINDSHIELD WOULD HAVE TO BE INSTALLED." IT APPEARS THAT AUDI OF AMERICA DOES NOT CARE ABOUT THEIR VEHICLES BEING UNSAFE.
