The vehicle was in the dealership\u2019s possession for approximately three (3) weeks for service. During that time, I was not informed of any significant mechanical concerns or issues.  After retrieving the vehicle, it displayed an oil pressure warning while in operation. I immediately returned the vehicle to the dealership for evaluation. At that time, the dealership added oil (\u201ctopped off\u201d the vehicle) and released it back to me without identifying or addressing the underlying cause of the warning.  Following this, I made multiple attempts to have the vehicle properly diagnosed. I experienced difficulty obtaining assistance, including calls being disconnected, and I was not provided meaningful support or a thorough evaluation of the issue.  Shortly after leaving the dealership, the vehicle began producing abnormal knocking noises and rapidly became unsafe to operate, requiring it to be towed.  This situation presents a significant safety concern, as a sudden loss of power or drivability while driving can increase the risk of an accident, particularly in traffic conditions where maintaining speed is necessary.  The condition has since been confirmed by a service provider as a major mechanical failure.  Additionally, I have received documentation from the manufacturer indicating a known issue related to piston skirt defects associated with this vehicle. Despite the vehicle being in the dealership\u2019s possession for an extended period, this issue was not identified, diagnosed, or addressed. I was also not provided clear assistance or guidance regarding potential warranty consideration related to this known issue.  The vehicle is currently available for inspection upon request.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2019","productMake":"AUDI","productModel":"Q8","manufacturer":"Volkswagen Group of America, Inc."}]}]}
