Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I just had my rotors and pads replaced on all four wheels of my 2000 audi s4. less than three weeks after that repair, the abs computer failed. i don't know if the two incidents are related but i am worried about the failure of the abs controller at such a young age. computer parts do not take wear and tear and should be designed for the expected life of the car- not four years like for me. i have read on the internet of many other similar failures and i am concerned of a general safety issue, particularly for such a critical part like an abs controller.*ak
