Brand	VOLKSWAGEN
Model	ROUTAN
Model Year	2010
File date	15/04/18
Component	WHEELS
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Our van was in motion on the highway after an almost 2 hour drive on the highway. Loud noise, screeching, shake/vibration and a large bang and the van dropped. Upon stopping and inspecting we found the right front and left rear bolts had completely sheered completely off both wheels while driving on the highway. We were able to coast to side of road and and the wheel hubs were resting on the inside of the rim. The wheel hubs have destroyed the inside of the rims, the heat created from the grinding has melted the vw emblem on the rim. The right front tire had also come to rest on the right fender. The right rear tire was out of alignment/proper positioning however our visual inspection and lack of experience i cannot determing if these bolts are also starting to breakdown or the incident may have caused a drive shaft/axle damage.
