Description of the problem	Recently bought my 2013 audi q5 in may of 2017 and seven days ago i began to have an issue with my vehicle roughly vibrating and experiencing low acceleration. I was blocks away from my home, but having it be rush hour and dealing with the current issues of my car suddenly losing power i am lucky to have made it home. Since my car will no longer start and not having the funds to have it towed to my nearest audi dealer ship, i paid to have a mechanic service come and inspect the vehicle. Upon having the mechanic inspect my vehicle, i got the unfortunate news of what was wrong with my car. It seemed to be having a known issue with the vw/ audi 2. 0 timing chain. So, i was looking at roughly $2,500 in repairs on a timing chain replacement for my perfectly maintained and well cared for audi. With further investigation my mechanic notified me that not only my vehicle is suffering from the well know timing chain issue but because of that it also resulted in catastrophic engine failure. I am now looking at a bill of over $7,000 for a new engine on my fairly new audi.
