Parking brake disengaged on 3 occasions: button popped off parking brake handle, as if shot from a gun, and car rolled backward.1st instance was prior to august 2012 but no damage because i was still in the car and stopped it.2nd instance in aug. 2012 car rolled backward into another vehicle in a parking lot, resulting in damage to my rear bumper and extensive damage to other vehicle, which was parked.3rd instance on 5/11/13, car rolled backward down driveway. I tried to get in the car to stop it, but was not able to stop it until the driver door was caught and ripped past its normal maximum opening, extensively damaged.in aug. 2012 after the 2nd incident, the emergency brake was checked by audi dealer, who said they could glue the button back on but reported nothing wrong with the parking brake apparatus.

My audi tt (2002 model) with only 25k miles has had serious drive train failures. The first incident was when traveling at 60 mph my front left axle fell out of the drive system, and my car was thrown into a spin. I barely missed several other vehicles as well as a highway divider. I was told at the service center the axle never was pinned in place properly. The second and more recent incident involves the transmission. While driving in moderate traffic, as i shifted through the gears, nothing happened, and then finally when it felt like the car shifted into gear, the entire transmission froze up, and i almost was hit from the back ... Once again the car was towed to the service center for more repair ...besides these issues, in the last 2 years i have had the car in for numerous other issues regarding the drive system also. This is just not a safe car.

Under warranty the rear window in the convertible top start to come off and eventually fell out.
Rear glass windshield started to come apart n rain water leaked in n short circuited the wiring . The window finally came apart completely n fell off. Becaus of the water leak , it short circuited the wiring n the comunication with the main computer is corrupted n the air bag sign is on also.
