Vehicle has had four documented electrical/drive system malfunctions in 12 months, all tied to high heat. We regularly drive our [XXX] child in this vehicle and no longer feel safe doing so.  XXX: Electrical system malfunction warning while driving. Taken to Audi dealer.  XXX: Same malfunction recurred, taken to Audi dealer again. Both times dealer advised waiting for cooler temps rather than repairing the vehicle.  Mid-XXX: Charging began degrading in extreme heat.  Day before report: Charging stopped completely, leaving vehicle unusable.  Day of report: Drive system malfunction error, vehicle would not shift into drive, had to be towed.  A dealer service advisor confirmed Q8 e-tron batteries commonly degrade and fail in Arizona heat and described it as a known regional issue.  Safety concern: this vehicle repeatedly loses drive function and charging capability without warning in extreme heat, creating a real risk of being stranded on the road, including with a young child in the car. This is not a comfort or convenience issue, it is a recurring safety failure that Audi has been made aware of multiple times without resolution.  Documentation available: text correspondence with Audi, dealer service records, tow record.
