Steering linkage failed. While pulling out odf a driveway, the linkage between the steering wheel and rack broke rendering the car unsteerable. The steering wheell simple spun. Fortunately this did not occur at high speed. The dealer service dept said it was " normal wear and tear. This vehicle does not have high mileage and is maintained by Audi. I have the broken part for your inspection. It is broken in two.
