Consumer Description

REAR TIRES HAD "CUPPING" WEAR AROUND THE TREAD. FORD DEALER SAID IT WAS BECAUSE I DID NOT ROTATE THE TIRES (FRONT TIRES ARE OK). FIRESTONE DEALER USED ALIGNMENT INSTRUMENTS THAT SHOWED THE REAR WAS OUT OF ALIGNMENT. FIRESTONE, AS DO I, BELIEVE THE CAR WAS NOT PROPERLY ALIGNED COMING OFF THE ASSEMBLY LINE. FIRESTONE SAID THAT THEY HAD SEEN MANY FOCUS MODELS WITH PREMATURE REAR TIRE WEAR PROBLEMS.*AK (TIRESIZE: P195/60TR1)
