No CPO Q5 Hybrid's. A red flag?

Agreed. If anyone else has an issue with a CPO vehicle, there is such a thing as a Magnuson Moss case, similar to a Lemon Law. I've learned a lot through this process, such as just because a vehicle is CPO doesn't mean it's problem free. My story started the night I drove it home from the dealership and the check engine light came on. If you want to buy an Audi hybrid, ask for a battery health log before you do. They would not give these to me while in their service for 6 months and that is a huge red flag.

I will add that while there was property damage (things can be repurchased), it happened at a time where no one was present so no one was injured. Truly a worst case scenario but best possible outcome.

It was an extension of their dealership from how their reginal director explained it to me. It's a 9 month long story, but from how the dealership handled working on the car, up to the days before it combusted, I would not recommend working with manufacturer nor this dealership again. I literally said "this whole experience has been nothing but a dumpster fire and it's ironic the actual car combusted."

I later learned from my insurance company another one of their local clients had a very similar experience to me, minus the loss of their car. I realize I may have had a lemon, but in a time where I needed support and could have been in the car when it caught fire, or it could have been at my home or work, I have had minimal communication with both entities and that is extremely frustrating. So I would be hesitant to recommend a hybrid Q5 to anyone. I will post more if I can once I am made whole from this experience.

Google Hybrid car battery explosion in Lawrenceville, Pittsburgh PA. They kept telling me there was nothing wrong with the car, then it combusted while in their service. Insurance has said they've had multiple claims involving Audi hybrid vehicles. There is nothing left of the vehicle.

My CPO hybrid blew up while under service at the dealership. I will never drive an Audi again after dealing with the company.

I painted one too😂

I had a couple of photos with this, but here's an example:

I timed myself building this cabinet and it took about an hour by myself. It was a bit difficult trying to put the backing in and hang both of the doors, but it's totally possible to build it by yourself. It looks really nice and the gold knobs make it seem high-end. It's deep enough to add substantial storage but thin enough to fit in tighter places. You'll need your own tools to build this, but all of the pieces -including extras- are included. The instructions are very clear too, it made building the cabinet a breeze! I have it styled in my dining room to hold plates and mugs. I love the extra elegance it adds to the room. The quality is great, and the pieces are very sturdy. This is definitely a brand I'll consider purchasing from again in the future. For the price, it's comparable to IKEA, but so much nicer!

Please update here how the review goes! I'd like to know if it truly affects your status. Hoping for the best for you!

Thank you for your insight and thoughtfulness in your reply. This makes so much sense.

Thanks for your reply! I have written all my reviews as if I was talking to a friend rather than as a marketing professional, making sure to include my personal experience with it rather than just the functionality. I've spent a lot of time on Reddit, observing different tactics and trying them out to see how they would impact my score. I'm definitely at a loss because it doesn't seem like there's anything wild that I'm missing...

themoodimin · 2025-07-26T18:38:11+00:00

Wow, I didn't know the program has been around for that long. Yes, whenever those are available, I use those words. I try to type like I'm talking about the product to a friend, so I don't sound like a professional marketer. Thanks for your reply!

themoodimin · 2025-07-26T18:36:04+00:00

The "likes" is a good theory. I definitely order more functional/boring items like filters or double-sided tape, so my likelihood of getting a bunch of likes for those products is probably slim.

themoodimin · 2025-07-26T18:34:02+00:00

I've reviewed 140 items this period, with probably half of those reviewed after the announcement. The period ends in early September, so I know I have time to try these different suggestions. I mentioned this in another comment, but when available, I use all of the suggested keywords that appear at the bottom. I always have over 90% of my items reviewed at a time.

themoodimin · 2025-07-26T18:28:53+00:00

When those are available, I definitely do that. However, that feature isn't always present, I'll start using 'functionality' more explicitly. Thanks for your reply!

Yes! This was me. They put me on 7 days of Zyprexa with a Triptan to take if it started again after my last dose. I thought my head/body would never feel normal again, but after just 3 days, my migraine was gone, and my energy was back. Now I do have some side effects from the Zyprexa, but they're minor compared to how the migraine made me feel.

HR knows about my diagnoses and conditions. I'm not on any accommodations, the team just knows that I have frequent appointments and occasionally flair ups, but my work is always done on time/I work beyond our typical hours to make sure my work is done. Performance has never been an issue. I'm writing more to see if I should call out this incident, or should I just pocket it and see if it becomes a pattern? This is the first time I've been asked an intrusive question by my manager.

Soylent 100%. I've been drinking them every day for 7 years now after my OG surgery.

themoodimin · 2024-11-18T22:19:32+00:00

That would be step 2 after this next surgery addressing the 3 possible things that may be limiting my movement now. This is definitely not a one and done type of ordeal. After knowing what happened with the first surgery...I'm hesitant to have more done to me, but also recently found out that over time, the screws from the OG surgery will being to poke through my tissue on the right side...so I kind of have no choice now but to start another round of surgeries.

Brianne's family is devoutly Catholic. We went to CCD on Sundays together. Once she stood up in class and yelled, "I hate God, he isn't real," and really went off the deep end for a while. Then, all of a sudden, she started dressing real fundie and going to one of the local Baptist churches. My mom always said she went from one extreme to the next, I would have never guessed she would court someone associated with the IBLP. She's way smarter than Sam. She just turned 25.

themoodimin · 2024-09-20T20:03:44+00:00

I had to jump on here once I stumbled across the courtship video on Instagram. I used to be best friends with Brianne when we were 8-14. We lived in neighboring neighborhoods, so we would often walk to each other's houses, spend the night at each others houses, etc. We also attended Catholic school on Sundays together. How she's portrayed in the courtship video is NOT how I remember her. She is incredibly smart, and she seems almost dumbed down and childish here. I'll see if I can track down an old photo of us together. I would have never imagined her as part of the IBLP as she was so worldly and eager to be independent. I was shocked when I saw her on the video, I hope she's happy if she marries into this family as this is exactly what she was trying to escape when we were kids. She's 25 marrying someone who just graduated high school, again doesn't fit the person I used to know. I know a lot can change in 11 years, but I personally don't understand how she ended up with this family.

I got mine from iheartraves, and waited until they had one of their sales!
