Consumer Description

JUST STARTING BACKING UP AND HEARD AND LOUD SOUND AND THEN THE TIRE WENT FLAT. TRIED TO CHANGE THE TIRE BUT COULD NOT GET IT OFF. I FOUND THAT THE SPRING HAD BROKE AND WENT THROUGH THE TIRE. CALLED AAA AND THEY SAID THIS WAS COMMON WITH THE 2002 TAURUS AND THAT I WAS LUCKY IT HAPPEN WHILE I WAS NOT DRIVING ON THE ROAD. VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BEFORE PEOPLE GET KILLED. *TR
