Description of the problem | My 2005 audi a4 avant shut down today on the freeway. Dealer said it was the fuel pump and that it failed early. However, they would not cover the repairs under warranty. I know there are recalls on the fuel pumps for the 2003 model but i believe the problem is actually more widespread. This is a very dangerous problem and to have the car shut down in the middle of the freeway is not normal. This fuel pump issue should be addressed immediately. I know there are many more owners out there that have experienced the same problems. |
