Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I was involved in an unexplained roll over involving a 2001 ford explorer sport, a 2 door vehicle. i did not have firestone tires on the vehicle in question. my goodyear tires were intact after the accident. i have reviewed the test data and i am convinced this is a faulty vehicle design. i nearly loss my life. it has changed my life. it seems as though your organization has cleared ford indirectly by focusing attention on firestone tires and not testing all ford suv's.*jb
