 Description of the problemI own a 2004 audi a4 - 3. 0 quattro. I was driving on the 710 long beach freeway in ca following my daughter's school bus on a field trip to the long beach aquarium prepared to spend a day with her. Suddenly, the car started shaking and then i realized i didn't have any power. I was able to maneuver the car to the shoulder of the freeway, but the 710 fwy has a very narrow shoulder. It was a very scary experience as big rig trucks were passing me on the driver's side literally inches away. I thought i was going to get hit by them. I called roadside assistance and was able to get the vehicle on a flat bed and towed to mckenna audi in norwalk, ca. The dealer diagnosed the problem to a defective fuel pump and clogged fuel filter. The consequences are that i had to pay $80 to have it towed to the dealership as my roadside assistance only covered 5 miles. Secondly, i had to pay $1,100 in parts and service to mckenna audi to have the car repaired. I see that audi had a recall for the 2003 a4 for bad fuel pumps. I think that they should also recall the 2004 model fuel pumps as well.
