So you're basically telling me that your comment was based-on an isolated incident. The '11 A6s never had any recalls nor known mechanical/electrical issues to generalize a brand as a whole. Luxury brands always covet a crab mentality as they typically associate with a niche market yet consistently dominant engineering & styling awards. That's why the entry-level & used luxury market is consistently at the peak of sales. As I said, most slander comes from those with little to no experience in the matter. Off the top of my head, I can only think of one recall that hit A6s in recent years & that was the '12 3.0L TFSI models. Regardless, the majority of that recall covered VWs. Please don't confuse poor maintenance of a vehicle and/or isolated "lemon" issues with a brand's overall assessment. For such "horrible" vehicles, you'd think these companies would be out of business, no?
Audis (especially new Audis) are actually pretty reliable & consistently receive average to above average ratings. Usually the people that throw-out conjectures either were reared to have that stigma so they can minimize/degrade an asset they typically cannot afford or simply have bias in as they do not personally own and/or have experience with.
My comment was based on experience with a 2011 A6 that needed a transmission and then gas line within 6 months of the warranty expiration, in addition to the traditional bad rap they receive LOL.
Yep. Bad rap and then my bae bought a 'lemon' as you call it. Don't like them enough to consider getting another one or denying my experience when discussing the subject. You have now idea how the car was cared for so its pretty ignorant to include poor maintenance as a reason it had the problem it had. The dealer gave her a break on the gas line repair because he said it was a known problem. If you have good reviews and experience with Audis that's great but don't try to discredit my experience by trying to be condescending in your rebuttal, its not necessary and makes you appear to be an ***. ETA I only said they were horrible OUTSIDE of the warranty LOL
damn
