| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I own a 1999 audi a4 with approximately 74,000 miles. recently upon start-up the abs indicator light comes on and the brake indicator light flashes. i have taken the car in for service and have been informed that i no longer have anti-lock brakes and that to remedy the situation will cost in excess of $1500. this is completely unacceptable and appears to be due to a audi manufacturing defect (anecdotally, i have heard of hundreds of similar issues with the abs). while the car is operable using standard brakes i believe it is a significant danger should the abs be required. please look into this issue. *jb |
