NHTSA Complaint #766073 — 2000 FORD EXPEDITION

WE FOLLOWED THE MANUFACTUERS CERTIFICATION LABEL INSIDE THE DRIVERS DOOR FOR THE CORRECT PSI FOR ALL 4 TIRES. THE CERTIFICATION LABEL INDICATED 26PSI FRONT AND 30PSI REAR. WE TESTED THE TIRES ON A MONTLY BASIS AND KEPT THE TIRE PRESSURE AS INDICATED. WHEN I WENT IN FOR AN OIL CHANGE I WANTED THEM TO CHECK THE TIRES BECAUSE THEY WHERE STARTING TO WEAR ON THE EDGES. I WAS ADVISED BY TIRESPLUS THAT ALL 4 TIRES NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THE STEEL BELT WAS COMING THROUGH THE TREAD. THESE TIRES ONLY HAD 20K MILES ON THEM FOR A 2 YEAR OLD VEHICHLE. WHICH 20K IS UNDER THE NATIONAL AVERAGE FOR MILEAGE ON A VEHICLE. I'M SO LUCKY THAT THESE TIRES DIDN'T BLOW OUT DUE TO THE STEEL BELTS COMING THROUGH WHILE I WAS DRIVING THEM. I CONTACTED THE CAR DEALERSHIP ON A FEW OCCASIONS AND THEY NEVER RESPONDED TO ME. THANK YOU
