Default Received Audi AEB Settlement claim form today...

Today, I received an Audi AEB Settlement "reimbursement claim form".

AEB is "Automatic Emergency Braking" system.

I've not had any problems with my braking, but I don't drive my Audi very much either...

There is a website to see if your VIN is within the class action settlement (mine was):

AEBSettlement.com

Hope this helps out!

I got one too, I have not repaired my AEB but I kinda knew it was messed up because it would randomly hard break, also my PRE-Sense stopped working for like months, suddenly without nothing to damage any of the sensors.
Hopefully I can take advantage of this letter and go to the dealership and ask if they can do it without charge.

Please report back after speaking to dealership. Our pre-sense has been finicky as well, especially lately.

The website clearly states, the settlement terms, Audi will pay 75% of the diag, repair, config, laser test, etc. The owner pays the 25%.

If you already paid to get this fixed, your case can be reviewed for Reimbursement.

Half my D4s are affected. I will sync up with my service manager this week..

I have an S5 and I realize this is the A/S8 forum, but you guys seem to be the only ones discussing this issue right now and it applies to pretty much ALL late model Audis. So other than slamming on the brakes a couple of times for cross traffic when I was just creeping up to a stop line with no intention of going ahead, I'm not aware of any problem with the automatic braking. But my car, being 6 mo out of regular warranty, would theoretically still be eligible for this IF I had a problem.

So, my question to those of you who DO have a problem, is: What do you notice? Since I'm a guy who'd just as soon have NO automatic driving features, I can't say I've noticed anything. But how does one know if one has this "problem," whatever it is.

When I got my 2015 I intentionally tested the system to see what it could and couldn't "see" are react to. I found it sometimes just doesn't react to things it should and a few times would randomly slam the brakes as is typical of these systems.

The W12 doesn't behave the same way but regardless I don't use the system on both cars after determining it's not as effective as I am.

Received this as well. Only issues I've ever encountered sometimes was a parking brake malfunction.

I have this problem but it is being fixed under Audi extended warranty but parts have been backordered since February. Guess I am not part of the settlement.
