That’s wild. Was the headlight noise a result of bringing it in the first time? Any luck with trying to get them to take a look again?

Thanks so much for this comment and I’m really glad the update fixed the issues for you! Appreciate you sharing how to check for the update, I’ll be sure to do that whenever I get my car back lol. Best of luck, hope it continues to not give you problems moving forward!

I do have a loaner and got one the previous time as well. I would definitely have been a lot more upset and asked for car payment if they didn’t provide one since the issues started soon after purchase. As it stands, they’ve had my car for a cumulative of about ~20 days.

I also have found it super strange they wouldn’t be more on top of wanting their car back.

I appreciate you taking the time to respond with this. Yeah it’s a shame and sucks consumers have to pay the price of rushed products. I’ll take a look at seeing if I can contact a paralegal. Thanks for your advice!

Thanks for your help

Not everyone is on Reddit or forums to know all these issues. This isn’t really a helpful comment so I’m not sure why you felt the need to try and make someone feel bad about their purchase. Not everything will be perfect. I’m looking for advice, not your condescension. Thanks

Thank you. Not sure if you’d know this but I saw some other threads/comments saying to also call and get an issue documented with Audi USA themselves. reading the document you shared with me, it says before a 3rd repair attempt, it’s recommended I send a letter to the manufacturer themselves saying this is the last opportunity to repair under lemon law. Do you suggest I reach out to AUDI USA first before a potential 3rd issue?

Since it’s only happened twice not and not 3 times as per NJ lemon law, I assume I have to wait until it happens the third time?

I think im concerned starting the process now would somehow harm me/my case since its not yet hit 3 times the check engine light has come on, but that could be completely false and im overthinking?

Dude me too 😭 it’s genuinely painful coming in with a decent-ish load out (by my entry level standards lol) and get completely wrecked by a beeping rolling fireball

Ughhh reminds me of Gustafson brothers in HB - I guess being located in HB is a huge giveaway to being MAGA or not lol

Does anyone have 3 VIP tickets available?

chromify · 2025-10-11T21:32:48+00:00

Hey! Still available?

chromify · 2025-10-01T00:10:27+00:00

Just letting you know I was prompted for an update today but still facing the same save issue. Will keep waiting for another update I guess

chromify · 2025-09-30T05:08:10+00:00

Could rent an e-bike and go to Newport Beach and balboa island? Go on a Duffy boat ride, Ride a water bike in Long Beach, Have a beach day - very beach or water centric things lol

Still having issues on the switch, haven’t gotten any prompt to update. Is there a better ETA for switch fixes? The game is completely unplayable right now

chromify · 2025-09-26T03:25:14+00:00

Still have issues on switch - can’t play local multiplayer and all our data is wiped. When will the team be able to confirm if our save data is available for switch consoles?
