Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I'd like to file a complant for a faulty vehicle component on my 2001 audi a4 (mileage: 30,000 miles). the abs and brake warning lights are coming on simultaneously. i've been reading a lot of similar complaints on the internet (that's how i found this site). dealer says there's a "fault code in the abs control module"...and wants $1500 (!) to repair it. the abs unit should not be failing as frequently as it seems to be in this car. for a $1500 component to malfunction when it's rarely actuated is beyond comprehension. the tsb should force audi to perform a recall and/or compensate customers for this outrageous problem.
