Wheel alignment.
Driving style – Fast cornering, hard acceleration and braking increase
tire wear. If you experience increased tire wear under normal driving
conditions, have the vehicle suspension checked by an authorized
Volkswagen dealer or an authorized Volkswagen Service Facility.
Unbalanced wheels – The wheels on a new vehicle are balanced.
When driving, however, various conditions can cause a wheel to be-
come unbalanced. Unbalanced wheels can cause wear to the steer-
ing and suspension systems. Have all wheels rebalanced. A wheel
must always be rebalanced if a new tire has been mounted.
Wheel alignment – Incorrect wheel alignment causes excessive and
uneven tire wear, impairing vehicle safety. If you notice excessive or
uneven tire wear, have the wheel alignment checked by an author-
ized Volkswagen dealer or an authorized Volkswagen Service Facili-
ty.
WARNING
Unusual vibrations or pulling to one side can indicate tire dam-
age.
Reduce speed immediately and stop when it is safe to do so.
Check tires and wheel rims for damage.
Never drive with a damaged tire or rim. Get expert assistance
instead.
If no external damage is visible, slowly and carefully drive to
the nearest authorized Volkswagen dealer, authorized
Volkswagen Service Facility, or other qualified workshop and
have the vehicle checked.
