Golf 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 3,400 miles
While driving 65 mph, the vehicle swerved to the right without warning. The consumer was able to maintain control of the vehicle and pulled over. The consumer noticed that the tread was separating from the front passenger tire. The consumer replaced both front tires and had the repairs made. When the vehicle was serviced the consumer was told that the rear tires (both orignal tires) were low on air.
