NHTSA complaint: 2004 AUDI A4 — POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
VEHICLE IS HAVING A PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSMISSION. OWNER HAS LEASED THIS VEHICLE IN JUNE 2004. WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN REVERSE, IT WILL NOT MOVE THEN SUDDENLY THE ENGINE WILL ACCELERATE AND A CLICK AND POP SOUND WILL BE HEARD AND THEN THE VEHICLE WILL SURGE BACKWARD. OWNER HAD TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. INSTEAD THE TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED BECAUSE IT WAS SAID AT THAT TIME THAT THEY WERE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM BUT COULD NOT REPAIR IT. PROVIDE FURTHER DETAILS.
