Consumer Description

ALTHOUGH I HAVE NOT HAD TIRE FAILURE, HOW CAN ANYONE FEEL SAFE WHEN RIDING ON A TIRE WHICH IS IDENTIAL TO TIRES WHICH WERE RECALLED EXCEPT FOR THE 16 INCH SIZE. THIS VEHICLE WAS SOLD BY A FORD DEALER, KNOWING THAT THE TIRES COULD BE RECALLED DO TO SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS. I BELIEVE FORD SHOULD REPLACE ALL OF THE WILDERNESS TIRES AS A SAFETY PRECAUTION.( DOT NUMBER: TIRE SIZE: P255/70R16 )
