What 30 owners told NHTSA about the 2015 Volkswagen Cc

ROAD NOISE AT 60MPH MADE ME INQUIRE AT MY 2 YEAR MAINTENANCE EVENT. MY CAR ONLY HAVE 16000 MILES AND THERE IS UNEVEN WEAR AND CUPPING IN THE REAR TIRES, PER THE DEALERSHIP. THEY SAID THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO ABOUT IT (WITHOUT ME PAYING FOR IT). AFTER SEARCHING THE INTERNET I HAVE FOUND NUMEROUS CASES OF VW CC OWNERS COMPLAINING ABOUT THE PROBLEM ONLY FOR VW TO DO NOTHING. IT IS A SYSTEMIC PROBLEM WITH HOW VW SETS UP THEIR SUSPENSIONS WHICH IS LEADING TO POOR TIRE WEAR AND CUPPING. THE SUSPENSION IS NOT SET UP PROPERLY FROM NEW, AND IT TAKES EVERY OWNER 10-20K MILES, A NEW SET OF TIRES, AND AN ALIGNMENT TO REMEDY THE PROBLEM.

I NOTICED A NOISE EARLIER THIS YEAR WHILE DRIVING AND I WAS CONVINCED IT WAS FLAT SPOTS ON THE TIRES OR ROAD NOISE.. I FOUND OUT RECENTLY THAT THE TIRES ON MY CAR ARE CUPPED AND NEED REPLACED IMMEDIATELY. SO I DID SOME RESEARCH ONLINE TO FIND THAT THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME ISSUE.. VOLKSWAGEN REFUSES THAT IT IS AN ISSUE WITH THEIR CAR!! FROM WHAT I HAVE READ THERE IS DESIGN FLAW IN THE SUSPENSION THAT CAUSES TIRE CUPPING AND FEATHERING.. I CONTACTED CONTINENTAL TIRE AND THEY EXPLAINED THAT THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE ON THESE CARS AND THAT IT IS VOLKSWAGENS RESPONSIBILITY. VOLKSWAGEN PUTS BLAME ON CONTINENTAL... HOW DO TIRES CUP THEMSELVES????? *TR
