I just purchased 2009 Passat Komfort on 11-08-09. On 11-10-09, I went back to seal the deal on the vehicle and I noticed a stem of some kind sticking out of the rear left tire. The dealership told me that they would sell me another tire because that one would be dangerous to repair because of the location and it may not hold or they could put my spare on inwhich is the same size tire. I feel that first of all, I just purchased this vehicle and they should've replaced the tire without my having to buy it and second, the spare tire is not the same size tire for the rim that it is on.
