Description of the problem	At 47658 miles check engine light came on dealer stated it was the camshaft & repaired at cost of $2007. (2/14) and same problem again at 60,711 miles at cost of $2305. There was a camshaft warranty extension (recall) for 10 yrs. 100,000 miles for same car for 2005 to 2007. My 2008 car was purchased 10/07 & would assume mfg. In 2007 which was the time period the camshaft problem existed and covered under that warranty. It appears audi did not want to extend that warranty into the next year even though the camshaft problem still existed. The camshaft should never have to replaced at such low mileage once much less twice on a much less expensive car much less than an audi. This is my third audi and i have never had a problem before. To date i have spent $4300 in 2 years on something that should not have to be replaced. Your thoughts and assistance would be greatly appreciated.

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.

Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
