The longer we drove it to get to an emergency exit, the more it started shaking. Within about 30-60 seconds the car became completely undriveable.  We were told conflicting things from the Audi service center and their technicians. We were first told that this was a complete engine failure that would need a new engine. We were told cylinder 3 lost pressure and was unresponsive. Then we were told it was just one faulty spring that needed to be replaced, and the vehicle was supposedly fine to run.   Simultaneously, and in one-on-one conversations, we were privately told by our Service Adviser Flor Fuentes that she had no confidence that the underlying engine issue was actually fixed, and that she felt the service center got lucky in identifying one temporary patch to the problem that got the engine running again, and that she herself would not feel comfortable getting in this car pregnant or putting a newborn child into this car.  We then retained a senior independent Audi service technician to make an assessment of Audi’s repair work, and they found several corners were cut in the process of allegedly fixing the vehicle, not least that Audi did not follow its own test driving protocols before trying to hand it back to us. The independent technician also advised that he could not assure our safety based on the path the dealership took in the alleged repair and the corners cut. We also have a recorded conversation with the head of Audi Service at Audi Central Houston where he acknowledges they didn't follow their own safety checks and standards in the process.
