    Sidewall · Tires

    The tire began making a squishing noise as it rotated. Over time it became worse. Then one morning we found it flat. We took it off to put the spare tire on. At that time we observed 9 separations of the sidewall of the tire, one with cord showing through it. During its life, the tire was rotated routinely and was always kept at the vehicle manufacturers recommended pressure. It was manufactured in february of 2011.

    My tire valve failed on my 2007 ford expedition. Two days after the dealer did the "visual inspection" on the faulty valve stems that have been know to have problems but have not yet been recalled by ford. This is the second tire that has failed on this vehicle! Both happened at freeway speeds nearly causing an accident due to tires running flat. Ford needs to do more than just inspecting these faulty valve stems.…

    Nhtsa said that there is not a safty concern that the valve stems on certin ford cars are splitting. They have closed the investigation april 9, 2009. That's great, except that on april 11, 2009 one of our valve stems blow out while we were driving on a mountain highway. There was no warning and the tire shredded. 2 18 wheelers had to do all kinds of moves to avoid hitting us. The one nearly did. The tire was…

The tire went flat at freeway speed and the sidewall is now damaged beyond repair. Under further investigation i find that the tire does not have any puncture and it is a cracked valve stem that is causing the leak. Even with the sidewall damage the tire takes air and the only leak is…

    I have a 2007 ford expedition that has had four (4) valve stems go bad. One caused the air to deflate so quickly the tire was ruined. When talking to ford dealers, one that replaced the tire and one that sold the expedition, both said it was bad luck and nothing could be done. Had it not been for the tire sensor system, i would have ruined the rim as well as the tire. The car did not vibrate or pull to the side or…

    Tires are defective with cupping causing vibrations tires look swollen and uneven threading. We took the car to check suspension system and they say everything is fine. I know that it is the tires. Which makes the car unsafe. I have children and because of the tires being unsafe i don't want to put my family in danger. *tr
