Consumer Description

GOING 25 MPH, WE HEARD A SWISH NOISE AND IT WAS THE SIDEWALL OF THE REAR DRIVER SIDE TIRE. THERE WAS A 3" LONG TEAR IN THE SIDEWALL THAT GOES INTO THE TREAD AREA. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. LAST TIME WE WERE GOING 60 MPH AND THE TIRE SHREDDED BEFORE WE COULD COME SAFELY TO A STOP. BOTH TIMES IT'S BEEN THE SAME LOCATION, REAR DRIVER SIDE. BOTH TIMES IT'S BEEN A SIDE WALL FAILURE. WE ARE REPLACING ALL TIRES INCLUDING THE SPARE AS I DO NOT TRUST THEM. MY TIRES ARE NOT UNDER THE RECALL AND FORD/FIRESTONE SAID IT IS A ROAD HAZARD PROBLEM AND/OR TIRE INFLATION. THEY WERE AT 65 PSI AND THE MAX RATING IS 80 PSI. I'VE BEEN DRIVING FOR 15 YEARS NOW AND THIS IS THE FIRST VEHICLE TO HAVE THE SIDEWALL GO OUT AND FOR IT TO HAPPEN TWICE IN ONE YEAR IS TOO COINCIDENTAL.*AK
