HELLO! I OWN AN AUDI TT WHICH I GOT FROM TISHER AUDI IN SILVER SPRING IN MARCH 2006. I HAD 2 TIRE BLOW OUTS SINCE FEBRUARY 2007. AUDI TOLD ME THAT THE TIRE IT RECOMMENDED FOR THE CAR WAS A LOW ASPECT RATIO TIRE , WHICH WAS EASILY SUSCEPTIBLE TO BLOW OUT. THEY FELT THAT I PURCHASED A TIRE PROTECTION POLICY THAT COVERED THE COST OF REPLACING TIRES FREQUENTLY AND THAT THE PROBLEM WAS RESOLVED. THEY REFUSED TO ACKNOWLEDGE THERE WAS A SAFETY PROBLEM WITH FITTING CARS WITH TIRES THAT WERE EASILY SUSCEPTIBLE TO BLOW OUTS DUE TO A …

DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND MY CAR STOPPED RUNNING. ALL THE BATTERY-OPERATED FUNCTIONS (LIGHTS, WINDOWS, ETC.) WORKED BUT THE ENGINE WOULD NOT START. I HAD IT TOWED TO A REPAIR SHOP THAT TOLD ME THE TIMING BELT BROKE WHILE I WAS DRIVING, DESTROYING THE ENGINE.
