 | Re: Audi Q7 - serious deffect: front wheel arm broke at 130km/h  Bad accident - with a total new car and they were only going 130km/h! I'm completely speechless. What would be happened when they were going more then 200km/h!  |

Despite sever side impact NO AIRBAG HAS DEPLOYED!  PS: case also showing that no AWD & ESP system CAN NOT trick the laws of physics. Some drivers think that AWD & ESP (or any other safety system) are allmighty - overriding & correcting all the driver's bad moves! WRONG! |

But the problem here was that no airbag (specially the side ones) DID NOT deploy despite severe side impact. | |

| Re: Audi Q7 - serious deffect: front wheel arm broke at 130km/h Hmm - this is pretty bad for PR however I think the demand for the car will not really change in the long run once they've fixed the issue properly. Anyone remember the 'soft' alloys on the S3/last gen RS4? |

| Re: Audi Q7 - serious deffect: front wheel arm broke at 130km/h If I'm correct, this is the 2nd Q7 crash where airbags have not deployed. This could be real trouble. |
