The short version
Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. reported a problem with the tires sidewall. Here is what owners need to know.
On the affected vehicles, it is possible that one or more tires were cured for too long during tire production.
Over cured tires may develop a break in the sidewall, resulting in sudden air loss or belt edge separation which could lead to tread/belt loss. Either condition can cause a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash.
Volkswagen will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the tires, and replace them as necessary, free of charge.
