TIRE DEVELOPED A BUBBLE ON THE SIDE AND WENT DOWN WHILE I WAS DRIVING.I WAS ABLE TO STOP WITHOUT AN ACCIDENT. (TIRESIZE: P265-75-16)( DOT NUMBER: TIRE SIZE: P265-75-16 )

WITH LESS THAN 10,000 MILES ON THE TRUCK, I HAVE HAD TWO OF THE TIRES BREAK BEADS, CAUSING THE TIRES TO LOOSE THEIR AIR PRESSURE. NEITHER TIME CAUSED MAJOR DAMAGE TO THE TIRE, OR TO THE VEHICLE, BUT THEY HAVE PROVED TO BE UNRELIABLE, AND POSSIBLY DANGEROUS. I HAVE HEARD THAT THEY ARE BEING LOOKED AT FOR RECALL, AND BASED ON MY LIMITED EXPERIENCES, I WOULD HAVE TO AGREE WITH THE RECOMMENDATION. I FEEL VERY APREHENSIVE EVERY TIME I GET IN MY TRUCK.*AK (DOT NUMBER: 008062 TIRESIZE: 265/75R16)

PE00040, ORIGNAL EQUIPMENT ON 2000, FORD, F250, TIRE SIZE LT265/75R16. PASSENGER'S REAR TIRE SIDEWALL BLEWOUT, ALMOST CAUSING A CRASH. CONTACTED FIRESTONE, AND FIRESTONE REPLACE TIRE.

I TOOK MY TRUCK TO BIG O TIRES IN SONORA FOR THE FIRST TIRE ROTATION AT 11,600 MILES. THE SERVICEPERSON TOLD ME I HAD "SCALPING" DAMAGE TO MY TIRES. I HAVE NEVER HAD A HEAVY LOAD NOR HAVE I TOWED ANYTHING. I KEEP THE PROPER TIRE PRESSURE IN THE TIRES AND CHECK THE PRESSURE REGULARLY. I FEEL THE FIRESTONE STEELTEX RADIAL A/T TIRES MAY HAVE A DEFECTIVE PROBLEM RESULTING IN THE DAMAGE. I ALSO HAVE FACTORY INSTALLED HEAVY DUTY SHOCKS WHICH CAME WITH A TOWING PACKAGE I ORDERED WITH THE TRUCK. *AK (TIRESIZE: LT23585R16)( DOT NUMBER: TIRE SIZE: LT23585R16 )
