my 02 A6 caught fire 3 weeks ago - searched the furum and found several others exactly like mine. Smoke from the drivers side dash / vents, then flames from the vent. I was able to put it out with an extinguisher. Waiting on Audi now to determine the cause and resolution. I bought car certified from an Audi dealer - sounds like the JC recall was not done or done improperly. ANy others out there?

Lots o' yelling about this same (and insanely stupid on Audi's part) problem in the above posting.
