Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Purchased vehicle on 2/1/15. I noticed when driving at speeds above 63 MPH the steering wheel shakes back and forth which is felt through the steering wheel, seat & front end. I opened a case with vw on about 2/11/15 and made an appointment with my local vw service department for 2/16/15. On 2/16/15 the vw dealer made a repair which helped reduce the sws, but it did not go away. I made another appointment for 2/23/15 for them to revisit this problem. For the second appointment the service department stated they didn't detect any shaking of the steering wheel. …”

On lift over two days with 60 PSI in tires-did not fix it. Road forced all tires and wheels,-did not fix it. New set of tires of different manufacturer-did not fix it. Car still vibrates.
