Wire harness at the trunk lid (l.H.S) . Where it hinges , wires tend to break there and short which controls the brake lights, blinkers, reverse lights, dashlights. Over time from opening and closing the trunk the wire break and come into contact with the other wires. I have had my fuse blow and not know it and have had cars behind me almost hit my car or people yelling at me saying i have no break lights. I have read on many forums that this is a common problem and audi knows about it and has yet to come up with fix. This is very dangerous and could cause a fire or have someone hit and killed for not having brake lights or directional lights. *tr

On 10/17/00 , the driver's side front wheel of this vehicle broke away from the rotor. Subsequent loss of control of vehicle, however, luckily no injuries. Unfortunately, another vehicle ran over the wheel which had continued down the highway. Mechanic suggested metal fatigue. Sent notification to audi client relations for reimbursement of expenses. Also, suggested audi look into my incident with an eye towards public safety. I have the faulty wheel along with the rotor at my residence for anyone to inspect. I also requested audit to inspect all my wheels and also the wheels of my other 1994 audi 90 cs. This is a very serious situation, especially if metal fatigue was the cause. *ak

When ignition switch does not kick from the start to the run position the starter remains engaged. Once in the key is manually moved into the run position if not in the exact position the following systems don't work: head lights, wipers, turn-signals, power windows, rear defrost, side mirrors defrost, air-conditioner / heat system. Audi has recalled 24,000 models from '94 - '96 to fix this problem. When i contacted the manufacturer they said i was not part of the recall and that i would have to go to the dealer. The dealer has been very unresponsive to my problems in the past so i thought i would start from the top and go down. Thank you for your time. Alan toler. *ak

The alarm system on the car will sound by itself without any disturbance to the car. Approximately 5 minutes after the doors are locked the alarm will sound. Only way to keep the alarm from going off is to leave the car unlocked.

Radiator fan runs constantly, and car overheats. I inspected the car 2 months after purchase and discovered that all fuses regarding the radiator fan were pulled in order to keep it from running constantly. The rear doors do not lock or unlock. The trunk does not unlock either. The airbag warning light is on constantly.
