| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Tires did not fail, but vibrate at a resonant speed on highway. this speed varies with loading of vehicle. the higher the loading, the higher the speed at which they vibrate. my fear is that they are delaminating and i could have a future problem. it is the 16" rim, so the tire has not been recalled. i have heard of three other explorers with the same exact problem. they bought a new set of tires (on a brand new vehicle) and the problem was resolved. from what i understand, ford knows about the situation, but chooses to stay out of it in light of recent bad press. *ak (tiresize: 245/75r16)( dot number: tire size: 245/75r16 ) |
