Description of the problem	Yesterday while driving on us hwy 41 in marquette, michigan (below the posted speed limit - i was traveling at 40 mph) and while braking for a traffic light the vehicle lost traction and did not enter the skid control mode. Upon approaching the signal to a stop, the vehicle skid into the adjacent right lane. There was no car in the adjacent right lane and no collision. My audi is equipped with audi's recommended winter wheels and winter tires (audi winter wheel and tire package number: npn071069), i strongly suspect that the dealer's recommendation to match the winter tire pressure to that of the all-season oem tires cause the winter tires to be over-inflated, and thus not make proper contact with the road. Dealer and the manufacturer do not provide manufacturer recommended inflation pressures specific to the winter tires 1) on the tire and loading information tag on the b-filler, 2) nor in the owner's manual, 3) at the dealership, nor on 4) the manufacturer's online maintenance and repair database audi erwin portal (www. Erwin. Audi. Usa. Com). I have asked the dealer service department for assistance on 2 occasions, and have received the same answer - the cold inflation pressure of 33 psi front and 36 psi rear for the original factory tires (225/45 r20 101h) should be used for the winter tires (235/65 r17 104h m+s). Even if this answer would be found to be correct, it should be supported by appropriate resources readily available to the customer. If the erwin portal did provide this information (which is does not), the customer should not have to pay for a subscription to access this information. I've attached three (3) items for your reference are attached.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
