Tire brand and size: Pathfinder sport S A/T 245/75-16 put on rear of 2003 Ford E250 extended length work van. Bought new from discount tire. As soon as I got on the interstate I noticed the vehicle felt unstable. Was wandering in rear. When making a lane change is was really bad and felt unsafe as the rear swayed from side to side. Had them take these tires off and replace with a major brand and this problem went away. I highly recommend some one looks into these tires as I think the potential is there for causing a spin out or roll over.
The contact owns a 2003 Ford E-250. The vehicle has trail king A/S mud N snow load range E tires, size LT235 85 R1. The contact noticed pulsation and vibration in the front end of his vehicle while driving 75 mph. A week later, while driving approximately 75 mph again, the vibration worsened. Almost immediately, the tread separated and the front passenger side tire exploded, which resulted in $1,900 worth of damage to the vehicle. The manufacturer has not been notified. The current mileage was approximately 115,000 and failure mileage was approximately 114,800.
