Suspension Noise Problems of Volkswagen CC

Road noise at 60mph made me inquire at my 2 year maintenance event. My car only have 16000 miles and there is uneven wear and cupping in the rear tires, per the dealership. They said there is nothing they can do about it (without me paying for it). After searching the internet I have found numerous cases of vw Cc owners complaining about the problem only for vw to do nothing. It is a systemic problem with how vw sets up their suspensions which is leading to poor tire wear and cupping. The suspension is not set up properly from new, and it takes every owner 10-20k miles, a new set of tires, and an alignment to remedy the problem.

I noticed a noise earlier this year while driving and I was convinced it was flat spots on the tires or road noise. . I found out recently that the tires on my car are cupped and need replaced immediately. So I did some research online to find that thousands of people have the same issue. . Volkswagen refuses that it is an issue with their car!! from what I have read there is design flaw in the suspension that causes tire cupping and feathering. . I contacted continental tire and they explained that this is a common issue on these cars and that it is Volkswagens responsibility. Volkswagen puts blame on continental. . . How do tires cup themselves?????.

2013 Volkswagen Cc equipped with continental conti pro contact tires. While driving at all speeds, an abnormally loud noise emitted from the tires. The vehicle had less than 15000 miles on the tires when the problem began. The road noise got progressively worse and eventually took the car to the dealer. The dealer stated that the problem is due to cupping of the tires and that I would need to replace the tires and get a realignment. The car has been serviced on a regular basis through the dealer and the dealer did not mention any issues with alignment during the services. Other owners had provided similar issues on the internet and that the issue had not resolved after both new tires and realignment in many cases. The issue seems to be related to bad alignment or ball joints in the suspension with the vehicle. I placed a complaint with vw and they would not furnish how many similar issues were reported by the consumers. Vw case# 160380592.
