This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
1996 Audi A4 interior of vehicle flooding. The consumer opened the front passenger door to find a significant amount of water on the floorboard of the vehicle (front and rear/approximately 32 gallons of water). They later found water around the battery and other engine parts within that area, which ultimately destroyed the wiring harness and transmission control unit. This problem occurred before. The problem originated from a design flaw that restricts water drainage from the engine compartment because of the malfunctioning of the rubber seal around the drainage hole below the battery. The engine drainage hole was not visible or accessible for routine maintenance.
