Consumer Description

VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF THE TIRES EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THIS RECALL. WHEN I PURCHASE A CAR OF THIS PRICE ($34,000+) I EXPECT TO FEEL SAFE AND NOT WORRY ABOUT THE SAFETY OF MY CHILDREN WHILE RIDING IN THIS CAR. I COULD HAVE PAID $10,000 FOR A USED VEHICLE AND FELT SAFER, I FEEL BETRAYED BY FORD AND FIRESTONE. *AK( DOT NUMBER: TIRE SIZE: 16 )
