## Narrative
Many times my 2020 SQ8 instrument pannel  lights up , even just pulling out of my garage , and indicates that my RIGHT  Front Tire is low/ or flat ( low tire warning ) and to check Right passenger side for damage .??? . ( each time (10-20 times ) this has happened and i discover NO Flat tire or Damage ).    On June 16 , 2020 while driving in traffic the instrument pannel lights up and shows the same message as above mentioned . About 30 seconds later, the Audi pulls hard to the Right jumps the curb and crashes the car . The Driver is Emotionally hurt & upset but is able to call Triple A as the entire right front of the Audi is completely damage with a turbo charger laying on the ground and part of the  front missing or smashed --!!! The car looks Totaled !! Major damage to the car .  It Still in  AutomotiveREPAIR shop getting repaired after being there for over  19 weeks so far .   Got an initial check for over $ 26k from my insurance company but now am told the Frame Could be bent as the pannels do not line up correctly .  What an absolute Mess - !! This terrible acident was NOT my fault !! The Audi served to the Right-  without me even turning the wheel.  ( I should have been Killed). The Audi SQ8 was towed to the Repair Shop where I reported the malfunction of the sterring wheel.  The repair Manager said " that I would have to call Audi and that he could do nothing about the problem ." I called Audi the Next Day and  they said they could Not do anything about it also . So
