Description of the problem | Malfunction and failure of both xenon front headlights while driving vehicle. Lights consistently would flicker and then at two different times both headlights went out leaving the driver to pull over at a high rate of speed completely in the dark. Contacted audi to fix the problem and they would not do anything about it. Very dangerous safety issue when traveling at 75 miles per hour in a dark stretch of i70 and both of your headlights go out. If the weather would have been bad it could have been a different result. |
