ON 9/4/2018 I BOUGHT 4 BRAND NEW DESTINATION LE2 P-METRIC OWL P265/75R16 TIRES WITH A 60000 WARRANTY FROM FIRESTONE IN HESPERIA CA. MY DAUGHTER JUST BOUGHT THE TRUCK AND I WANTED HER TO BE SAFE WITH NEW TIRES.ON NOVEMBER 14, 2018 ON HER WAY TO WORK AT 5:00 A.M SHE HAD A TERRIBLE ROLL OVER. SHE IS CURRENTLY IN ICU.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY HERE IN SAN DIEGO, CA. ON DEC. 31, 2018 AT 11:15 AM, AT 65 MPH I NOTICED A CAR IN FRONT OF ME SWERVE AND BEFORE A COULD DODGE THE OBJECT I HIT IT WITH MY LEFT FRONT TIRE. A DELFINITY, DAKOTA, A/T 2, LT265/75 R16. WITH ONLY 28,880 MILES ON THEM. WAS NOT LONG BEFORE MY STEERING BECAME WOBBLY. AFTER MANAGING TO GET OVER TO THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD IN HEAVY TRAFFIC I OBSERVED MY TIRE WAS FLAT AND DESTROYED BEYOND REPAIR. AFTER REPLACING IT WITH THE SPARE IN THE RAIN. I RETURNED HOME TO CHECK FOR ANY DAMAGE TO MY TRUCK, BUT FOUND NONE. AFTER A CALL THE THE PEPBOYS STORE WHERE I PURCHASED THEM ON APR. 30, 2013, AS WELL AS THE ROAD HAZARD SERVICE PLAN, I LEARNED THEY DO NOT CARRY THESE TIRES ANY MORE. I...

I HAD BEEN AT MY NEIGHBORS HOUSE FOR OVER 1 1/2 HOURS. WE HEARD A LOUD BOOM THAT SHOOK THE TRAILER WE RAN OUTSIDE AND DISCOVERED THE DRIVERS SIDE TIRE BLEW OUT DUE TO THE FIRE. THE ENTIRE HOOD WAS MELTING DOWN ONTO THE MOTOR . THERE WAS NO ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS LEFT UNDER THE HOOD BY THIS TIME AND THE FIRE WAS SPREADING TO THE CAB , BUT WE FINALLY PUT IT OUT THEN THE FIRE DEPARTMENT CAME . I CALLED MY INSURANCE CO , THEY ARE INVESTIGATING THE CAUSE OF THE FIRE . PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF ANY OF THIS PERTAINS TO MY CASE . THANK YOU *TR

WOKE UP THIS MORNING TO A COUPLE OF LOUD "BOOMS". MY HUSBAND WENT TO CHECK IT OUT AND DISCOVERED HIS TRUCK (WHICH WE JUST PURCHASED IN MAY) WAS ON FIRE. THE FIRE DESTROYED THE TRUCK, MELTED THE SIDING ON OUR HOUSE AND GARAGE, AND EVEN CRACKED THREE OF OUR NEIGHBOR'S WINDOWS. WE ARE SO GRATEFUL THE FIREFIGHTERS ARRIVED WHEN THEY DID OR THIS FIRE WOULD'VE KEPT BURNING OUR HOUSE. THE TRUCK HADN'T MOVED SINCE LAST NIGHT...DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED BUT WE WILL NOT BE PURCHASING A FORD AGAIN. *JS

ITS NOT WHAT HAPPENED ITS WHAT MAY HAPPEN SOON THE RUST IS SO BAD IN THE REAR I CANT EVEN PUT A TRAILER HITCH ON AND THE REAR SHACKLES THAT HOLD THE LEAF SPRINGS ON ARE ABOUT TO BREAK OFF THERES SO MUCH RUST IM VERY CONCERNED. *TR

THE TRUCK STARTED ON FIRE WHILE SITTING IN THE DRIVEWAY HOURS AFTER BEING PARKED. BY THE TIME WE REALIZED IT WAS ON FIRE, IT WAS TOTALLY OUT OF CONTROL AND THE TRUCK WELL BEYOND SAVING. IT BURNED SO HOT IT MELTED THE TIRES, THE SIDING OF THE HOUSE AND DESTROYED PART OF A PRIVACY FENCE. WE KEPT WATER ON THE FIRE UNTIL IT WENT OUT ABOUT AN HOUR AND A HALF LATER. THE FIRE STARTED UNDER THE HOOD AND THE WHOLE FRONT OF THE TRUCK IS ALMOST UNRECOGNIZABLE. THE OWNER ( [XXX] ) IS AN AUTO MECHANIC AND HAS BEEN FOR FORTY PLUS YEARS. WE RUN AN AUTO REPAIR BUSINESS. WE HAD HEARD VAGUE THINGS ABOUT FORDS AND FIRES BUT DID NOT LOOK INTO IT UNTIL AFTER THE INCIDENT. WE PURCHASED THE TRUCK THIS WINTER AND NEVER GOT ANY RECALL NOTICES FOR THE CRUISE CONTROL SWITCH PROBLEM. THE PRIOR OWNER...

I TOOK MY 2001 FORD F150 TO HAVE A TIRE REPAIRED, ASSUMING IT HAD A NAIL IN IT BECAUSE IT HAD A SLOW LEAK. I WAS INFORMED THAT THE (ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT) ALUMINUM WHEEL HAD A CRACK IN IT. I WAS FURTHER INFORMED THAT THIS IS CONSIDERED TO BE A FAIRLY COMMON PROBLEM WITH FORD'S ALUMINUM WHEELS OF THAT VINTAGE. *JB
