| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: While driving from oklahoma back to arizona i started to experience severe vibration. i pulled over, and noticed that the right tire had a huge blister with belt strands protruding from the inside tire. i took it off, and noticed nothing that could have caused it. i took it to earnhardt which the tire mechanic stated that a screw caused the belt separation. i find this hard to believe considering that the tire only had 18500 miles on it and the location of the screw (very small too) was not in the vicinity of the huge blister. it's my belief that the heat was the primary cause. i hope others won't incur the same problems with general tire (graber aw p255/70r16) on 2001 ford f-150.*ak |
