I'M NOT SURE IF THIS FALLS WITHIN YOUR AREA OR RESPONSIBILITY. I AM REPORTING THIS BECAUSE I DON'T BELIEVE A TWO YEAR OLD VEHICLE PURCHASED BRAND-NEW, SHOULD HAVE BOTH THE ALTERNATOR AND RADIATOR FAN MOTOR FAIL SO SOON. I THOUGHT THIS MAY BE A MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT. THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR ANY INFORMATION YOU CAN *AK

Tires

RIGHT REAR TIRE WALL BLEW OUT. DRIVER DID NOT HIT AN OBJECT. TIRE CUT GASH IN GASOLINE TANK AND CUT BRAKE LINE. FIRE DEPARTMENT RESPONDED TO SCENE. NO FIRE RESULTED. VW DISCLAIMS ALL RESPONSIBILITY, BUT IT SEEMS OBVIOUS THAT A GAS TANK THAT CAN BE CUT THROUGH BY A BLOWN TIRE IS INADEQUATELY PROTECTED, TOO THIN OR OTHERWIDE DEFECTIVE. VW DENIES A DESIGN DEFECT. ALTHOUGH NOBODY WAS HURT, THE RESULTS WOULD HAVE BEEN CATASTROPIC IF A SPARK HAD IGNITED TE SPILLING GASOLINE. PLEASE CONTACT OWNER AT ABOVE TEL. NUMBER OR AT HOME 818-360-5485 OR HER HUSBAND KENNETH HELD AT 909-596-1848 OR SAME HOME TEL.
