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.
While driving 40 mph smoke started to appear inside the vehicle that came out from the dashboard. A fire started. Dealership was notified, but did not resolve the problem.
It is very difficult to read the instrument panel during the day when the headlights are on. The instrument panel light dim when the headlight are turn on. As you know it is a recommended safety practice to run during daylight with headlight on. I find it difficult to get the information I need under these circumstances. This is a distinct safety hazard in my opinion and may have already caused accidents. The correct is clear. Make the instrument panel light brighter. I have asked for help from Audi on several occasions. They have done nothing although one customer service person told me to see my eye doctor. This should be corrected. A quick glance at instruments should be possible at any time. If you have to study hard-to-see instruments instead of looking at the road, danger lurks.
