I've forgotten who owns the Eurovans or I would have addressed this more 
specifically.

I've just been made aware of a problem with the tires on my '93 Eurovan 
and I'm wondering if any others have (had) the problem.

I just got back off an extended road trip and dutifully went to have the 
tires rotated .... no problem there.

After I drove a few miles withthe rotated tires I was convinced that I 
had put tank treads on the van.

I took it back to the dealer and they recommended that I have the tires 
balanced ... I did ... no change.

One of the mechanics mentioned that my tires were "choppy" and had 
numerous flat spots.

After a long conversation about how and why, I was told that somehow my 
rear wheels were probably out of alignment. (I don't understand that part 
at all but ...)

The dealer wanted to sell me a new set of tires

Something in the back of my mind signalled me to check with the VW 
dealer; I did.

Once I explained the problem to the VW dealer's service person, the 
comment was "Oh yes, we've noted some problems with those tires on THAT 
van. If you'll leave the van with us we'll do what we can to straighten 
the problem.

Well in the suddeness, I could not leave the van but plan to take it back 
on Monday or Tuesday. I've got about 28,200 miles on the van now.

QUESTIONS:

Has anyone else had problems like this?

Any idea why or how it happens?

Any idea about what I can expect from the dealer or VW USA?
