| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Ford specifies only 235/60-15 tires on this vehicle. this size is not available in a winter tire. these tires are unacceptable for use in upstate new york in winter. what can be done to get ford to identify safe winter tires? i have had significant problems stopping the truck in bad conditions and these tires are just no good in winter weather. i believe it is technically unacceptable and fundamentally irresponsible for an automobile company to only recommend a summer tire and then sell the vehicles throughout the country. please help me. i have talked to ford customer service and they stick with the single size recommendation. this is stupid.*ak |
