This is the first time we’ve had a report of excessive tyre wear on the V-Class. Tracking problems are usually caused by a kerb strike or a pot hole, however, it’s worrying to hear that you’re still having issues after the dealer re-tracked it.

We’d recommend returning to the dealer to have the tracking checked again as something is clearly wrong. If they refuse, tell them that you’ll take it to an independent specialist – like www.alignmycar.co.uk – and will send them the bill if it transpires that their re-track was not done properly. I’d also consider replacing the tyres for Michelin CrossClimates, which are available for the V-Class.
