| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Since we first purchased the car, we have been complaining that our tires have been wearing out too quickly, show unusual signs of wear. after the third visit to the dealers, i contacted ford to express my frustration regarding the tires and that fact that i had to continually replace these tires at my cost ? it was unusual that tires were wearing out with less than 20,000 miles on the vehicle. ford motor company denied any responsibility for the tire, suggesting that the unusual wear was a factor that was being caused roads within new hampshire and improper maintenance and our failure to keep our tire aligned and balanced. on august 26th, 2007 - my car began to experience some a wobbling in the car as if the car was out of alignment - with a five minute period, it started to feel like we had a flat tire. i pulled to the side of the road and inspected the tires on the vehicle, which did not appear to be flat. again i proceeded down the road and within the next 500 my car began to experience some a sever wobbling, violently shaking the car. again, i got out of the car to inspect the tires assuming that this was being caused being caused by a flat tire. again, all of the tires appeared to be fine, who ever i did notice that left rear passenger tire appeared to wobble when i pushed on it with my foot. assuming that the tire might be lose, i proceed to jack up the vehicle in an effort to determine if the tire was potentially loose what i discover, was that the tire was fine, instead, the entire left assemble (tire, disk brake assembly and the rotor) were coming off the car? *tr |
