Consumer Description

1993 FORD EXPLORER--SPARE TIRE CABLE RUSTED OUT ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO AND WE HAVE NO IDEA IF THIS TIRE FELL OUT ON AN INTERSTATE OR LOCAL TRAFFIC, WE NOW ALSO HAVE A 2000 FORD EXPLORER. WILL THE SAME THING HAPPEN AGAIN? MY SON-IN-LAW WAS TRANSPORTING PRISONERS WITH A 1998 EXPLORER AND THE SAME THING HAPPENED TO HIM IN TRAFFIC. *LA
