Ignition switch failure we caused the lights, turnsignla, horn, windshield wipers and washers and heat in the car to no work. Very dangerous. This was caused by ignition switch melted wires from the heated steering wheel.
My 1999 Audi A6 avant ignition switch failed causing the lack of turn signals, windshield wipers, heater and horn. The bernardsville Audi dealers claims it "fried some wires" which to me sounds like a safety and fire hazard.
Flames started shooting out the driver's side vent on 1999 A6 sedan. While driving smoke began coming out of the ac vents then flame starting coming out of the driver's side vents. The driver was able to pull of and extinguish the fire. The consumer sustained a small burn while putting the fire out. The consumer looked on the NHTSA website and found a recall on the ignition switch (04V13300) but has not received a notice about the recall.
