Consumer Description

FRONT TIRES ON MY RANGER KEEP "CUPPING" CAUSING A NOISE AND VIBRATION FROM THE FRONT. DEALER SAYS I NEED TO KEEP ROTATING THE TIRES EVERY 5000 MILES WHICH I HAVE BEEN (WHICH I ALSO FEEL IS EXTREME). SERVICE MANAGER TOLD ME IT IS BECAUSE FORD USES SOFT TIRES ON THIS MODEL. SOUNDS LIKE A DEFECT, MAYBE WHY THE EXPLORER'S KEPT ROLLING OVER.
