# Service bulletin JobAid

A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

- Type: Service bulletin
- NHTSA id: 10236700
- Published by NHTSA: 2023\-05\-30
- Manufacturer's number: JobAid
- Manufacturer's date: 2014\-06\-03
- NHTSA component: SUSPENSION; ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL:AUTOMATIC \(ASC\)

## NHTSA's summary

The suspension characteristics of the Touareg make it more susceptible to variations in the rim and/or tire. For this reason a diagnostic balancer is necessary to balance, force match and/or select tire placement so that the vibration may be eliminated.
