Had to replace all 4 tires on vehicle after 14,888 miles - signs of tread separation on two of the tires - vehicle purchased and licensed in Arkansas but being driven by son in navy stationed at afb in Oklahoma city. Vehicle purchased in late spring of 2000 -- lots of miles (avg. Nearly 800 miles per week) mostly on highway at speeds of 70 mph. When son brought home had to hold steering wheel tightly with two hands at all times to adequately maintain control of vehicle. Called local Firestone dealer to inspect and they refused since tires were not part of recall so had all tires replaced. Am currently storing replaced tires in garage pending some sort of adjustment / replacement. Ford dealer agreed tires needed to be replaced but did not offer any assistance.
