I have the 16" Firestone tires not under recall, however it is important to note that after learning of the recall I checked the air pressure in the tires of my new vehicle cold. Right front at 34.5 psi, right rear at 33.5 psi, left front at 32.5 psi, and left rear at 32 psi. The tires should have been inflated to 30 psi. It would appear that Ford does not control the inflation of the tires correctly.

I was driving South on highway I-25 in Colorado when all of a sudden, I heard a "weird" sound and my truck started to swing from one side of the road to the other. I managed to get it under control and put it on the side of the freeway. The tire was completely shredded. Firestone blamed it on me, said that I drove over a nail or something and that they wouldn't cover anything. It was clearly visible that the thread had seperated, all around. I had lost my confidence in the tires since one other tire showed marks on the side and I bought Bridgestone tires. After a long discussion, they agreed to refund me for one tire.( dot number: )

While traveling in a residential area, the right front passenger tire blew out, the blowout pushed me into the curb and caused major damage to the suspension. After having the truck towed to the Ford dealer, I was told that I had to of hit something to cause the blowout. I hit the curb after the blowout occured. My insurance company paid for repairs under comprehensive insurance with a $250 deductible. I believe all the tires should be replaced and I should have priority since this incident happened, and I should be re-imbursed my deductible, along with my insurance company being re-imbursed( dot number: )

While driving I noticed that my truck was pulling to the right all of a sudden. Upon inspecting the right front I found the R front tire flat. After changing the tire I noticed that the tread looked like it was starting to come apart. I returned the tire to the dealer since it only had 900 miles on it and was informed that tires are not covered bywarranty.I purchassed a new tire and contacted Firestone via telephone. I was told that there was nothing that they could do, but after fighting with the rep. She put me on hold and when she came back she said "that for costumer satifaction they would send me a chack for half the cost less taxes after they recive a copy of the bill". I faxed them a copy and recived a check for $47 in a few weeks. In my phone convercation I stressed that it looked like the tread was comming part but they denied it and that was the end. Now the news hits that they have known about this problem and still refuse to admit it. I have unsafe tires and will as soon as possible purchass new one and seek to file a lawsuit on this matter.( dot number: Tire size: P245/75R16 )
