Is Your VW or Audi Dealer Screening Your Calls?

Audi and Volkswagen are giants of the German automotive industry and are two companies with an impressive global reach. In the United States, these automakers are particularly popular. For instance, consider that in 2020 Audi ended the year with its most successful quarter in company history, supplying a total of 505,583 cars. For Volkswagen, the end of 2020 also brought positive signs despite the troubles that many sellers had earlier in the year as a result of the pandemic. In the United States alone, Volkswagen of America, Inc. reported 94,330 units delivered in the fourth quarter of 2020, which was an increase of 11 percent from the previous year.

Growing Pains of the Audi e-tron Cause Frustration and Expense for New Owners

The e-tron Quattro concept was first revealed by Audi at the 2016 Frankfurt Auto show. It introduced a series of electric and hybrid cars from the German automaker in line with parent company Volkswagen’s commitment to electrify its entire line-up of cars by 2030. The first fully electric Audi did not hit the U.S. market until 2019 with the Audi e-tron. New for 2022, Audi is adding the smaller, more affordable, Audi Q4 e-tron compact SUV and Sportback to its e-tron line-up. Like many electric vehicles, or EVs, the e-tron has had a bumpy start in life, with the Audi e-tron problems starting from the moment the electric car was announced. Even the e-tron unveiling planned for August 2018 in Belgium was abruptly canceled following the arrest in Germany of CEO Rupert Stadler in connection with the Volkswagen diesel emissions scandal.

Can’t Get the Parts for Your Vehicle Repair? You May Be Protected By Lemon Laws.

The auto industry was one of the first to feel the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic in early 2020. Even before the first cases were announced in the U.S., mandated closures and travel restrictions in other countries disrupted the supply chain of U.S. automakers. According to U.S. Department of Commerce statistics, imported auto parts totaled $155.8 billion in 2019, with the biggest suppliers to the U.S. auto industry being Mexico, Canada, and China. Virtually every automaker was affected.

The Great Hyundai Stink of 2020

The Hyundai Palisade is an award-winning, three row SUV that made quite a stink with its 2020 debut. Numerous owners reported a smell inside the cabin, particularly on hot days or when the vehicle doors and windows were closed for a long time. This was not the “new car smell” that we all recognize and sometimes miss when it disappears after a few weeks or months. The smell reported by Palisade owners was nothing to be excited about - “a sharp chemical odor with a dash of something organic like garlic or rotten produce” (according to Cars.com) - and it got stronger over time, rather than dissipating like the usual new car smell.

Common Four Door Sedan Defects

Although automakers are currently producing a number of high-quality four door sedans, with millions of these vehicles on the road, defects are inevitable. Nonetheless, manufacturers have an obligation to ensure that the cars they provide to consumers are safe and reliable. They also must issue recalls when defects are detected internally or by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).

Common Hybrid Defects

Hybrid vehicles continue to gain in popularity in the U.S. due to their fuel efficiency and benefits to the environment. Generally, hybrids rely on a combination of an internal combustion engine and a battery electric drive system. The electric motor powers the car at low speeds, drawing on the battery for power, in addition to supplementing the internal combustion engine when extra acceleration is required. Although these vehicles increase fuel economy and reduce emissions, hybrids have also experienced numerous defects since they were first introduced to the market.
