Question ID: 86314
Audi is a 95% owned subsidiary of Volkswagon America, Inc., so it may
be the same information; most interest in identities of CEO, CFO,
Chief Marketing officer and/or COO and mailing information (Auburn
Hills, Michigan?); want to write concerning dissatisfaction with
warranty and authorized dealer performance.

Hi! I can give you the mailing address for the Volkswagen of America
headquarters but no maling information for the CEO and CFO. I have
also located their names so maybe you could just address the letter
directly to them. Would this be ok? Just let me know. :)

The address for Audi of America, Inc. is 3800 Hamlin Road, Auburn
Hills, MI 48326 -- same for VW? If officers are the same, I'll go with
general corporate address.

I have verified that the North American HQ addresses for Audi and VW
are the same -- 3800 Hamlin Road, Auburn Hills -- I'll go with what
you've got.

I had the Hoover's information, but I didn't stop to consider the
commonality of addresses; I would still lke to get the D&O info which
is a matter of public record somewhere -- I know it's part of an
annual report in the state in which the corporation is incorporated as
a foreign corp.-- Lexis-Nexis is probably where I'll have to go if I
want that degree of certainty. Timely reply by easterangel-ga.

Do you want the Officers and Directors of Audi USA, or of Audi (parent company)?

The Hoovers.com site quoted is the only place I have found that
appears to list the officers in the USA, and as one must pay for that
information, it is outside the scope for the price of this question.

However, I was able to find German parent company Volkswagen's
officers:
Volkswagen of America is a subsidiary of Volkswagen AG, Germany
Members of the Volkswagen AG Management Board:

Dr. Ferdinand Piech, Member of the Management Board
Bruno Adelt, Member of the Management Board
Dr. Robert Buchelhofer, Member of the Management Board
Dr. Peter Hartz, Member of the Management Board
Dr. Jens Neumann, Member of the Management Board

VOLKSWAGEN AG
Austrian
38436 Wolfsburg                                                       
    Germany

Have you tried calling VW in Auburn Hills and asking for the names? I
would think that this is public information. I don't know why they
would mind giving it out.

Good Luck!
