TIRES
MY 2010 VW TDI SPORTWAGON EATS UP THE INSIDE OF THE TIRES, VERY QUICKLY. I JUST PURCHASED MY FIFTH SET OF TIRES FOR A CAR WITH LESS THAN 70,000 MILES ON IT. I'VE HAD THE ALIGNMENT CHECKED THREE TIMES, AND IT CONTINUALLY SHOWS TO BE WITHIN SPECS. THE FIRST TWO TIMES, I HAD A VW DEALERSHIP CHECK THE ALIGNMENT, AND BOTH TIMES THEY TOLD ME THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. I JUST HAD A PRIVATE MECHANIC CHECK THE ALIGNMENT, AND HE SAID I COULDN'T HAVE A MORE PERFECT ALIGNMENT, ACCORDING TO VW'S SPECS. THE LAST SET OF TIRES I PURCHASED WERE RATED FOR 55,000 MILES, BUT I ONLY GOT 15,000 OUT OF THEM BEFORE THE INSIDES WERE WORN DOWN INTO THE BELTS. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION SINCE THE REST OF THE TIRE LOOKS NEW, AND UNLESS YOU GET THE CAR UP ON A LIFT, OR LAY DOWN ON THE GROUND TO DELIBERATELY LOOK AT THE INSIDE OF THE TIRES, YOU CANNOT SEE THE DAMAGE TAKING PLACE, AND PLACING THE OPERATOR IN A SITUATION WHERE A BLOW-OUT CAN OCCUR WITHOUT WARNING. PLUS, NOT TO MENTION THE EXTREMELY HIGH COST OF TIRE PURCHASES TO OPERATE THIS VEHICLE. *TR
