1 Wheel problem of the 2001 Audi A6

Failure Date: 06/28/2018

Driving on interstate 80 around a curve when I hear a loud noise o looked around at the other cars in the other lanes to see what was going on and they were looking at me wondering the same thing or they saw the blowout and or heard the noise? I realized it was my tire losing steering control. I quickly moved over to shoulder found I was riding on rim. The tire had blown off rim to the back of wheel well pushing off the anti lock brake cable for that wheel and damaging my wheel well. A few minutes after examining tire a state of nevada emergency road service van pulled up and said after looking at tire, your lucky you didn't cause an accident with that tire failure. He put on spare and I drove away. I also had other tire experts look at tire and not one of them said it was a road hazard even though the manufacturer said it was after their inspection. One of the tire experts who sells their tires said don't even try to get them to replace that tire they never do. Goodyear is the parent company.

9 Wheel problem of the 1999 Audi A6

While driving during any snow the wheels get packed with ice and or snow to the point where the balance is severely thrown off necessitating stopping to clean out the wheels repeatedly in order to operate the car safely. Steering is compromised and the car shakes violently at speeds over 55-60 mph. Not to mention having to get out of the automobile on the roadside in a snowstorm to clean out the wheels. This poses both operational and situational safety concerns. I think Audi should supply wheels which are appropriate for winter driving, especially in this all-wheel drive automobile.
