Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Noticed excessive wear on all four tires. Went to dealership to resolve the issue. They said the excessive cupping and feathering was not a Volkswagen problem. I just needed to replace the all four tires at my own expense. I went to my own mechanic and the excessive cupping and feathering was not an alignment problem or problem inherent in the tire. The weight in the rear was too light. Probably when the manufacturer used a light weight small spare, the weight of the vehicle changed and caused the excessive cupping and feathering. …”
