Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Audi a6 abs not functioning after only 58,000 miles. audi refuses to stand behind its engineering and repair. diagnosis" abs control unit is no longer communicating with the instrument cluster". cost over $800 to replace and can only be replaced by audi dealer. many a6 owners have same problem, yet audi has not issued a "campaign" / recall. isn't abs intrinsic to the safety of the car...sort of like the airbags? why not engineered to last longer than 58,000 miles? or, could it be engineered on purpose to generate dealer service revenue? something not right here. *jb
