Consumer Description

HAD WHAT APPEARED TO BE A SLOW LEAK IN REAR TIRE. TOOK IT TO LES SCHWAB TIRE AND THEY FOUND IT WAS A WELD THAT WAS FAILING IN THE ORIGINAL STOCK RIM. THE SPLIT WAS APPROXIMATELY 8 INCHES LONG. I THEN SPOKE TO A LOCAL FORD DEALER WHO DENIED EVER HEARING ANY KNOWLEDGE OF SUCH A THING AND SIMPLY SAID YOU CANNOT BELIEVE EVERYTHING YOU SEE ON THE INTERNET AFTER I HAD GOOGLED THE ISSUE. HE SAID FORD TAKES THESE THINGS VERY SERIOUSLY BUT THAT THIS WAS SOMETHING BRAND NEW. HE KEPT INSISTING A 13 YEAR OLD TRUCK WILL HAVE ISSUES AND THAT I SHOULD LOOK AT THEIR NEW ONES...EVEN THOUGH THE INTERNET HAD ALL AGES OF RIM ISSUES RELATED TO THE F SERIES PICKUPS
