“These tires keeping blowing out on me - this is the third one in five months. This presents a huge liability and Audi refuses to replace these obviously bad tires with new ones from another manufacturer. I have requested pirelli all season tires which are far more appropriate to highways and city streets.”
NHTSA complaint #753336, filed 2001-10“We have owned this TT for just over a year and we have experienced 2 very serious tire blowouts on the highway that could have caused serious accidents. We only drive this vehicle on well-maintained surface roads and highways (no back-country driving, no off-roading). Additionally, we were not changing lanes, did not hit any potholes, or doing any evasive manuevers when both incidences occurred. We have taken this car to all scheduled maintenances. As we have now had two close calls, it has made us very concerned about this tire's safety and reliability. …”
