Description of the problem	While commuting to work, the accelerator pedal on my 2004 audi a4 cabriolet stuck to the floor. At the time, i was driving approximately 35-40 mph. The pedal suddenly moved away from my foot, stuck to the floor, and my car started to rapidly increase in speed. Not knowing exactly what was going on, i hit the brakes, to no avail. The engine was screaming as the rpms raced into the 7000s. I tried to jiggle the gas pedal free with my foot, but it was stuck and would not budge. The brakes, which i pressed on again with all my strength, would not overpower the engine. I threw the manaul transmission into "park" but that did not stop the car either. I finally turned the ignition off and the car came to a grinding halt in the middle of the street. The car was towed to the closet audi dealership, hoehn audi. They had the car for two weeks but told me since they were not able to recreate the problem and did not detect any malfunctions in the car's computer, there was nothing wrong with my car nor was there anything they could do for me. In fact, they tried to tell me that the accelerator may have gotten stuck under the floor mat. I told them that was not possible and that i was looking at the accelerator as i was trying to get it unstuck and there was no floor mat in the way. I also filed a complaint with audi's customer care advocates. My complaint was denied because the dealership did not find anything wrong with my car. I then took my car to the audi dealership where i leased the vehicle, miramar audi, for a second opinion. They, too, told me that they were not able to detect anything wrong with my car and that there was nothing more they could do for me. They told me that they believed audi corporate was involved but would not provide with the name of anyone at audi corporate with whom i could discuss the issue further. They also stated that they had three other audis in their service dept for the same problem.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
