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.
When depressing gas pedal from stopped (or near stopped) position, the vehicle fails to respond before moving forward. This most frequently occurs when pulling onto or crossing a street, and I'm concerned it will eventually be the cause of an accident. The dealer has checked this several times, but says that the recorder shows no problem. It does not occur every time, and no default is recorded, but it continues to occur even after almost two years. Dealer has a number of service requests for this issue, all marked as ntf. I also have copies of 10 or more email complaints to dealer that can be made available is requested. Only the latest date is noted below - it happens almost every week.

The car has about 10K miles. It smells like unburnt raw fuel when the car is parked in residential indoor garage. When there is no car in the garage, the odor is not present. The car was taken to the Audi dealer but they claimed the smell cannot be reproduced. It is a safety, health and environment issues hence reporting.
