Consumer Description
MY 2016 FORD EXPLORER JUST TURNED 36,000 MILES AND ALL FOUR OF THE HANKOOK VENTUS S1 NOBLE 2 TIRES THAT CAME ON CAR HAVE PREMATURE WEAR, WITH 3/32ND OF AN INCH REMAINING ON THE TREAD. THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT PREMATURE TREAD WEAR WITH THIS TIRE AND FORD WILL NOT DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. I WAS TOLD BY FORD MOTOR CUSTOMER SERVICE THAT BECAUSE MY CAR HAS TURNED 36,00 MILES THERE IS NO WARRANTY COVERAGE OR OTHER RECOURSE THAT I CAN TAKE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. THE SERVICE MANAGER AT MY LOCAL FORD DEALER, CHATHAM FORD, WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE ALSO TOLD ME THAT THIS PARTICULAR TIRE SHOULD NOT BE USED ON AN EXPLORER. YET MY DEALER ALSO SAID THAT THEY CANNOT DO ANYTHING TO HELP ME. THERE APPEARS TO BE A DEFECT WITH THIS TIRE AND THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL.
