Consumer Description

NHTSA SAID THAT THERE IS NOT A SAFTY CONCERN THAT THE VALVE STEMS ON CERTIN FORD CARS ARE SPLITTING. THEY HAVE CLOSED THE INVESTIGATION APRIL 9, 2009. THAT'S GREAT, EXCEPT THAT ON APRIL 11, 2009 ONE OF OUR VALVE STEMS BLOW OUT WHILE WE WERE DRIVING ON A MOUNTAIN HIGHWAY. THERE WAS NO WARNING AND THE TIRE SHREDDED. 2 18 WHEELERS HAD TO DO ALL KINDS OF MOVES TO AVOID HITTING US. THE ONE NEARLY DID. THE TIRE WAS COMPLETELY SHREDDED AND WE COULD HARDLY GET FAR ENOUGH OFF THE HIGHWAY TO PUT ON THE SPARE. WITH THREE SMALL KIDS IN THE CAR, IT WAS VERY SCARY. THE ON APRIL 25TH, 2009, IT HAPPENED TO THE OTHER FRONT TIRE WHILE WE WERE ON A TRIP. WHEN INSPECTING THE TWO BACK VALVES, THEY WERE BARLEY HOLDING ON. WE WERE IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE AND NOTHING WAS OPENED FOR HELP. *TR
