DRIVING 2004 TOUAREG EQUIPPED WITH AIR SUSPENSION. SPEED 55 STARTING RIGHT HAND SWEEPING TURN THE RIGHT SIDE AIR SUSPENSION BLEW OUT DROPPING THE FRONT END TO BUMP STOPS CAUSING REAR OF TRUCK TO BOUNCE AND GO SIDEWAYS CAUSING LOSS OF CONTROL OF VEHICLE. APPARENTLY THERE IS A TSB TO CHANGE THE MATERIAL OF THE CONNECTOR THAT BLEW OUT, HOWEVER DEALERSHIP IS NOT WILLING TO PERFORM IT UNLESS I PAY FOR ANYTHING THEY MAY BREAK IN THE PROCESS OF THE REPAIR. CORROSION IS CAUSING FAILURES IN THE NORTHEAST. *TR
