At North Penn Volkswagen, our tire department provides a quality tire rotation perfect for squeezing every mile of life out of your tire investment. We have a team of factory-trained and certified technicians ready to provide our customers with the tire rotation needed to offset rapid tread wear. Leaving tires in the same position for too long will eventually lead to rapid tread wear caused by the variable forces impacting each wheel location. Tire rotation service removes and remounts each wheel-tire assembly to a different location to mitigate the risks of rapid tread wear. Routine tire rotation service is one of the best methods to get reliable tire performance, maximum tire life, and reduce long-term tire replacement expense.

Tire rotation is essential maintenance because it mitigates the risk of rapid wear that happens from leaving tires in the same position. With the front wheels facing additional steering forces, tire rotation helps ensure that your tires will not wear out prematurely. As the first line of defense, we recommend that our customers follow Volkswagen’s recommendation for tire rotation service outlined in the owner’s manual. However, since certain driving factors can cause rapid wear, we also recommend inspecting the tires routinely to detect and correct rapid wear proactively no matter what the mileage. Through adherence to the recommended tire rotation schedule, while monitoring for rapid wear, our customers can do everything in their power to promote reliable tire performance, maximum tire life, pleasant driving experience, and reduced long-term operating costs.
Weight needs to be distributed evenly between all four of your vehicle’s tires for optimal functioning. Unfortunately, everyday wear and tear on your Volkswagen can cause the balance between your wheels to become slightly off. When you take your vehicle in for wheel balancing, a mechanic makes adjustments to weights attached to your tires’ rims. These adjustments make it so that weight is distributed evenly once again. This is a simple and inexpensive procedure that can make a big difference in your vehicle’s mechanical condition over time.
Eventually, you will start to notice some negative consequences if you go too long without having your tires balanced. In particular, you may start to notice that you feel some alarming and distracting vibration behind the wheel when you’re traveling at higher speeds. If the issue gets too severe, poor balancing could impact your vehicle’s handling. This will leave you with less control than you should have behind the wheel. Your tires, braking system, and suspension system could also develop mechanical issues if you neglect to have your wheels periodically balanced. You might also notice reduced gas mileage if the balance between your tires is off.
At North Penn Volkswagen, our tire rotation service begins with a factory-trained and certified technician that understands your VW model and its tire maintenance requirements inside and out. Our expert technician will remove each wheel assembly, inspect the tires as well as the exposed brake system parts, and remount each assembly to its new position according to factory specifications. If we find worn tires or faulty brakes, the problem part can receive the corrective maintenance or repair as needed to restore reliable performance and safety.
