THE BRAKE AND GAS PEDALS ARE TOO CLOSE. I CONSISTENTLY HIT THE BRAKE WHILE ACCELERATING. THEY NEED TO BE SPACED FARTHER APART, AND THE BRAKE PEDAL MOVED TO THE LEFT. THERE ARE COMMENTS ALL OVER THE INTERNET ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND AUDI SERVICE SAYS THERE IS NO FIX. I HAVE LARGE FEET AND HAVE NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM WITH ANY OTHER CAR MANUFACTURER. I NEED THE NHTSA TO GET INVOLVED BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT. THIS IS A VERY BIG DEFECT THAT NEEDS TO BE FIXED.

How to use these: a complaint is one owner’s report, filed voluntarily and published unverified. Patterns matter more than any single story. If several owners describe the same failure at similar mileage, put that system at the top of your
pre-purchase inspection list. Back to the
