My concern is this.i am experiencing the identical electrical problems listed in the original recall.the dealer tells me my problem the ignition switch and it needs to be replaced.isn't that a bit odd?are ignition switches parts that usually need to be replaced?have other owners of the recall experienced that same problem?was the original replacement a new type/model switch? i called audi of america and talked to them about my concern.they told me they have not received any complaints.i thought it best to at least register a complaint.thanks for you time!

Consumer's vehicle experienced the same problem asmentioned in recall 96v071000 concerning ignition switch.dealership would not repair the problem free of charge, because the vin was not included.
Audi issued recall for some a6 models on failed ignition switch.the 1994 100s is essentially the same car with probably same switch.according to my shop they have seen tons of these.yet i have to pay because my car is a '94, instead of1995 and 1996makes no sense.
Ignition switch failed, recall component however vehicle denied due to vin #.
Ignition switch failed.see nhtsa campaign id 96v017000.exact same defect.seems like too much of a coincidence that my car, built 9/93 wouldn't have same switch component w/ same problem.but my car is not covered??audi ignores me.
The ignition freezes in the start position which causes difficulty in starting the vehicle.this vehicle is not included inrecall 96v017000concerning ignition failure.

Complete engine shutdown without any prior warning after driving approx. 4 hours on i-95 south. Car started and ran normally for another 3 hours immediately after i pulled over and stopped. Same thing happened the next day after same amount of driving time on i-75, car started without problem and i reached destination after another 15 minutes. Readout of computer showed nothing. Mechanic recommended to prophylactically replace cam sensor which i did. Effect remains to be seen.recommendation: car manufacturers must be forced to take measures to prevent complete engine shutdown for any reason other than a direct engine failure. It is too dangerous and could lead to severe accidents if this happens in heavy traffic, especially in lanes with no shoulder! it is bad enough if an engine fails by itself.a brief internet search showed numerous reports of such incidents!!!
Timing belt, pulley and tensioner failed.
The car has stalled out without any warning numerous times when driving at highway speed, the first occurance dealer replaced a radiator switch, and two days later vehicle stalled again.
