Default ...a new car? No.

IMHO, Your car is missing some $99 Blose speaker junk. You have zero chance of getting a new car <LOL>. They will slap in the strap-on speaker/amps and put on shiny Blose logos and send you on your way.

Default Not true. I've seen it happen before over very minor stuff.

A friend of mine has bought VWs and Audis that have been bought back over minor discrepancies on the Monroney.

This is an example posted below...<ul><li><a href="http://www.cars.com/go/search/detail.jsp?tracktype=usedcc&amp;searchType=21&amp; paId=132526425&amp;pageNumber=0&amp;numResultsPerP age=50&amp;largeNumResultsPerPage=0&amp;sortorder= descending&amp;sortfield=PRICE+descending&amp;cert ifi

Default Wow, that's amazing.

I can't believe AoA would do that for something as trivial as Bose speakers. I guess I'd try to get a new car too. I wonder if he'll get bigger payments?

Default It doesn't matter how trivial it seems.

If it's listed wrong on the Monroney it's a violation of the Automobile Information Disclosure Act.

US Code Title 15, Chapter 28, Sections 1231-1233.

Default Re: Called Audi about Bose issue!

This happened to me shortly after picking up my A4/2006 in August. I got a phone call from AoA telling me about the mistake and they offered me the $600 difference for the system. I guess I was too naive to push the matter further, and I accepted the money. They sent me a new window sticker that shows "no Bose".
I am disappointed--but the check covered the first month's payment!!

Default They have done it all except a new harness....the issue is in the line that runs...

from the body to the door. When the speaker is out, all I have to do is wiggle the wires and it works fine....but it is a pain in the *** to do that everytime.....

Default Re: Called Audi about Bose issue!

My A4 is similar with NAV XM and BOSE. But now I'm wondering if I really have BOSE. I have not heard the stock system. How can someone tell? If Audi is charging consumers $1000 for BOSE but there is none on the car that's against the law. Easy law suit. Anyone else with a similar car?
