The car now has come to an emergency stop twice on two separate occasion's here in Columbia and in Atlanta while I am attempting to cross an intersection or leaving a median lane. The cars safety features stop working at random times and throw several warning signs. Car has lost power while attempting to drive forward and rolls back with an initiates rear view camera. I have taken my vehicle to the Audi Dealership several times over the last year and the problems continue. The customer service has been poor and this car is supposed to be certified and i have had nothing but problems. The steering sometimes pulls you into other lanes and makes mistakes on changing speeds while using cruise control and slows car down tremendously.

1st- having numerous sensor warning lights coming on at indiscriminate times while highway driving including telling me to put my hands on the wheel when they are on the wheel, cruise control sensor warning comes on and shuts of the cruise control and the lane guidance sensor comes on with warnings. I may get all three warnings appear on one 45 mile trip or I may not get any.sometimes it's the same one 3,4 or even 5 times.. 2nd mmi screen randomly does not come on and having issues after I hang up the phone the radio will not come back on and will continue to show phone in use. I restarted the car two or three times touching the screen over an over before it finally comes on. 3) seats randomly does not remember our key fobs. 4)paint is coming off the car in different spots please note that on the drivers side real quarter panel where the paint started peeling, the peeling spots are many many inches away from each other and they are in varied spots and not in a row. 5)shuttering when trying to turn. It acts like it doesn't want to go (like somethings coming at it) and it's stopping you. This was an issue in the very first visit when a sensor had to be replaced as well as something they did to fix the headlight issues then to. 6)new - warning sensor went off saying vehicle light malfunction. We got a picture of the triangle and the exclamation point. Also there a funny light (looks like a snow flake) show 6) windshield visual of speed and all the other stuff went off and on then out before everything blipped and came back on. 7) lock sensor malfunction. All these things are happening numerous times and have been to the dealer 4 times. Found out that a stop sale from Audi was issued for 2012-18 for our exact vehicle and others but ours is a 2019. This stop sale was issued because of numerous faulty sensors.

Each time I use cruise control and completely out of the blue, the car will suddenly slow down and an indicator lane light will come on. I never use the lane assist so that is not the problem - I checked that first. Hands are on the wheel, attention is fully on the road and there is no driver error. I will be cruising along and the car suddenly (very suddenly!) will slow down - almost as if the engine was shutting down. I'm no longer using cruise control because of the potential danger. In addition to this issue, the virtual cockpit will go black and never works consistently I.e. the bluetooth connection and apple car play. I've spoken to my dealership and they said to call Audi connect. Still no solution as to why the problem happens. Very frustrating.

Purchased 2019 Audi A7 brand new. Currently have approximately 2800 miles (2 month old car). Has prestige package with driver assistance option. There have been multiple instances where the driver assistance suddenly and significantly slows the car without any car/object in front. This has happened to me on multiple occasions on local roads (hasn't happened on freeway speeds yet). Usually happens 30-50mph local roads. The car/driver assistance "slams on the brakes." This can be scary and very dangerous especially when a car is behind. Second issue is that there is a significant 1-3 second lag after pressing the accelerator pedal. This is very dangerous when taking left/right turns with cars on the coming road.
