Default car cranks but doesnt start ,giving gas doesnt help

so i just drove somewhere to look at a 04 a4 today and its like 97 degrees and when i went to start car back up it wouldnt start. it cranks but doesnt turn over. i dont think i hear fuel pump. giving gas doesnt do anything. fuse for fuel pump isnt blown. is there any emergenicy shut off in trunk or anything i can check? im stuck in this guys driveway right now and its 95 degrees , if anyone can help me i would appreciate it . thank you justin. also there is no codes or check engine light, all other lights on dashboard are normal when starting.

Sounds like you just got your fuel pump failure warning. It could quit while on the road like mine did.
