MY DRIVEWAY IS ON A SLIGHT DOWN-SLOPE. WHEN PARKED THERE WITH MY AUDI A4 2.0T'S FRONT END FACING DOWN WITH MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE, I PUT MY AUDI IN REVERSE, MOVE MY FOOT FROM BRAKE TO THE GAS PEDAL AND ATTEMPT TO BACK UP THE DOWN-SLOPE, BUT MY AUDI AGGRESSIVELY ROLLS FORWARD AS I CONTINUE TRYING TO ACCELERATE TO BACK UP. I CAN ROLL FORWARD 3' TO 6' BEFORE REVERSE GEAR KICKS IN AND WHEN IT DOES THE LAUNCHES BACKWARD AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED OUT DRIVEWAY INTO THE PATH PEDESTRIANS WHO I'VE NEARLY HIT AND GOES ON INTO STREET TRAFFIC WHERE I HAVE ALMO…

WHILE STOPPED AT AN INTERSECTION WAITING TO TURN LEFT ACROSS TRAFFIC, LET OFF BRAKE TO ACCELERATE WHILE TURNING WHEN THE ENGINE HESITATED.

THE SAME HESITATION HAS OCCURRED AT FOUR WAY STOPS AND STOP LIGHTS. THE ENGINE HESITATION OCCURS MORE…

IT APPEARS THE FRONT BRAKES ARE ENGAGED AND SUDDENLY DISENGAGES AND THEN SUDDENLY LAUNCHES FORWARD. THERE HAS BEEN NO ASSISTANCE FROM THE DEALERSHIP TO ASSIST …

I WANT TO COMPLAINT ABOUT THE BRAKE LIGHT OF ALL THE NEW AUDI CARS, BECAUSE THOSE LED LIGHTS ARE JUST WAY TOO HARSH AND DAZZLING. I KNOW MAKING THOSE LIGHT BE BRIGHT IS GOOD TO CAUGHT OTHER DRIVERS' ATTENTION. HOWEVER, AUDIS ARE DOING IT TOO MUCH. EVERY TIME I STOPPED BEHIND AN AUDI, I FELT DIZZY AND COULD NOT OPEN MY EYES. *TR
