| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Too many audi s4s are being stolen around the boston, new jersey, new york, philly area. there was a special on the news in boston about just how easy it is to steal the xenon headlights (1 minute). no immobilizer was added to the s4 although other audi models received one as well as lower priced sister company volkswagen's jetta starting in 1999. there is not enough security for a 40,000 plus dollar car. i have heard of many many people having their s4s stolen or being robbed of their almost 1000 dollar xenon headlights-not to mention people hurting the car (1000s of dollars damage) trying to get the headlights. audi needs to issue a recall and retrofit the vehicle with more security. *jb |
