Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Since i purchased a 2004 vw touareg on 2/28/04 i have had various problems with it. the most severe is the front end allignment and brakes. i have had a total of 6 front end allignments since i purchased the vehicule. it is in the shop right now and they can not correct it. this is a an extreme hazard at higher speeds since the suv pulls hard to the right. i was told by the mechanic that worked on my vehicule that he set the allignment to factor specs and it still pulls to the right. i took it to tire kingdom twice and they did the same and did a high speed balance on the tires as well and it still pulls to the right. also volkwagon of america put out circular vwa-04-12 stating that there is a factory problem with front end allignments on certin vin numbers on the touareg. vw will not acknowledge that there is a problem. i also have trouble with the breaks making loud noise and wearing out fast. now they are telling me that the rotors are bad. i have complained about the brakes and nothing was done. also there is condensation on the windshield from the air conditioning and they did have a recall on this, but the trouble still exsists.
