Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: First ignition coil pack failed on 3.0 a4 avant, i was distressed to discover that this is a known fault that has happened to a large number of owners with no plans to replace more than the units that fail when the problem occurs. this is unacceptable for a $35,000 car that has less than 3000 miles on the clock, it does not make you feel very comfortable to know that it could happen at least another 5 times. the dealer was very efficient and courteous, but that does not cut it with such a fundamental problem that could strike at any time. with so many customer complaints, audi should be forced to issue a recall notice.
