    I purchased a 2006 vw jetta in late 2008, early 2009. The car was brand new and sat in the showroom for two years. After of driving for 1 1/2 years, the tire sidewalls began to separate. Continental made the adjustment and i replaced the tires thinking that sitting in a showroom for that much time, they probably dry rotted. Today, i am having to replace all four tires again after 13 months for the same reason,…

    Continental conti pro tire failure. Between 12,000 and 30,000 all 4 of our conti pro tires have failed. All they say is sorry we cant help. Someone needs to get continental n/a attention and have them recall these tires before someone dies or is injured for life. We have tired several times to reason with continental to no avail, and even vw has tired, with no luck. Please take a look at all your tires. *tr

    Contipro tires. Three of the tires on my new car have had sidewalls bulges. The first i feel was my fault. I drove on the tire that had low tire pressure. But the two other tires have not had any compromising situations. Each tire had less than 5,000 miles on it. Continental tire warranty is a joke, they have been no assistance. I have never had tires fail me, i have always just worn them out. *tr
