Left front tire blew without warning, lost control of truck and trailer and crossed the median into oncoming interstate traffic. Stearing link on truck broke, not sure when. Truck and trailer were totaled. LEFT REAR TIRE BLEW WHILE PARKED A COUPLE OF MONTHS LATER. No visible defects. I have attached two pictures of the left front tire taken at the scene of the accident and three pictures of the left rear tire taken as it failed in two stages, first a bulge in the tread, followed a few weeks later by a zipper-like sidewall separation. Tires were less than 10 years old when they failed. I still have the tires as well as the other two matching tires from the set. The accident occurred in Bath NY. Michelin LT235/85R16

WE JUST BOUGHT THIS TRUCK AND THE OLD MAN THAT OWNED IT HAS USED A BUNGEE CORD TO KEEP IT SHUT BUT WE PREFER NOT TO DO THAT SO I'M LETTING THE PROPER AUTHORITIES BE AWARE THAT THE DRIVER'S DOOR LATCH WON'T STAY SHUT, SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE LATCH, THE DOOR OPENS WHEN DRIVING.

WHEN DRIVING AND HITTING A BUMP ESPECIALLY IN A TURN, THE FRONT WHEELS SHUTTER VIOLENTLY.

MY CRUISE CONTROL WENT OUT, I WAS RESEARCHING ONLINE WHAT PARTS MAY HAVE GONE OUT WHEN I SEEN A RECALL DONE FOR CRUISE CONTROLS COVERING FORD VEHICLES INCLUDING THE DIESEL OF MY TRUCK AND YEAR. WHEN I CALL TODAY I WAS TOLD MY VEHICLE WAS NOT COVERED I DO NOT SEE HOW ALL THESE OTHER VEHICLES ARE COVERED DID INCLUDE AT THE DIESEL AND THE YEAR OF MY TRUCK AND NOW THEY SAY IT'S NOT COVERED. THE CRUISE CONTROL STOPPED WORKING ON MY WAY TO WORK OCTOBER 7TH.

TAIL LIGHT BULB SOCKET BURNT. NOTICED THAT BULB ACTS LIKE IT'S BLOWN BUT RESEATING ALLOWS IT TO FUNCTION AGAIN. THIS HAPPENS ABOUT ONCE A MONTH. NO FUSES ARE TRIPPED WHICH IS ODD. HOWEVER THE FIRST TIME I CHECKED THIS I NOTICED THE SOCKET WAS SCORCHED YET WIRING LOOKS OK. I ASSUMED IT WAS JUST MY VEHICLE BUT SINCE HAVE HEARD SAME REPORT FROM OTHERS ON THEIR TRUCKS AND CARS. THERE IS NO INDICATION OF DANGER UNTIL YOU REMOVE TAIL LIGHT TO CHECK BULB.

TRUCK HAD BEEN PARKED ALL AFTERNOON AT WORK. UPON LEAVING WORK THERE WAS A SUDDEN LOUD NOISE THAT WENT ON FOR A FEW SECONDS AND THEN STOPPED. IMMEDIATELY I THOUGHT I HAD HIT SOMETHING BUT ONCE THE VEHICAL WAS STOPPED I SAW THAT THE UNIROYAL LIBERATOR A/T TIRE HAD BEEN THE ISSUE. IT HAD TREAD SEPERATION AND HAD DESTROYED THE BED OF MY TRUCK WHEN IT CAME APART.

BRACKETS HOLDING FUEL TANKS HAVE CORRODED ALLOWING THE FUEL TANK TO DROP. I NOTICED IT WHEN I PARKED MY TRUCK IN THE DRIVEWAY. I HAVE SINCE PUT A CHAIN AROUND TO TRY TO PREVENT IT FROM DROPPING ENTIRELY AND EXPLODING.

WE HAD JUST HAD NEW FIRESTONE TRANSFORCE HT TIRES PUT ON OUR TRUCK. APPROXIMATELY FOUR MONTHS LATER, AS WE ARE TRAVELING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT 65 MPH, WE FELT A SERIOUS VIBRATION IN THE LEFT REAR TIRE. WE SLOWED DOWN TO 60 MPH & THAT'S WHEN THE TIRE BLEW OUT. WE PULLED TO THE SHOULDER OF THE HIGHWAY TO INSPECT & THE TIRE BLEW OUT THE SIDEWALL. WE DID NOT HIT ANYTHING & NO ROAD HAZARD CAUSED THIS DAMAGE. WE SIMPLY FELT AS A SERIOUS VIBRATION & WITHIN A HALF A MILE OR MILE IT BLEW OUT. THE SHOP WHERE WE PURCHASED THE TIRES CHARGED US FOR ANOTHER TIRE. THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED BY WARRANTY BUT WE WENT AHEAD AND PAID FOR IT BECAUSE WE NEEDED THE VEHICLE FOR WORK. IT CONTINUED TO HAVE SEVERE VIBRATIONS WHICH CAUSE DIFFICULTY STEERING THE VEHICLE IN ACCELERATION & IN BRAKING. SO WE HAD EVERYTHING REPLACED ON THE FRONT END. AFTER THIS, THE TRUCK STILL FELT UNSTABLE...THE VIBRATION WAS STILL THERE AND IT WAS STILL DIFFICULT TO STEER.. IT ALSO HAD A TENDENCY TO PULL FROM ONE SIDE TO THE OTHER & AT ALL TIMES & MY AIR PRESSURE WAS AT SPEC. THEN JUST RECENTLY, WE NOTICE THAT ALL THE TIRES, INCLUDING THE ONE THAT WE HAD REPLACED FROM THE BLOWOUT, WERE COMING APART ON THE SIDE WALLS. THERE WERE CRACKS ALL AROUND THE SIDEWALL OF EVERY SINGLE TIRE. THIS CAUSED QUITE AN ALARM TO US AS WE HAD BEEN DRIVING THIS TRUCK & COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED HAD WE NOT NOTICE THIS FLAW! THERE'S A PROBLEM WITH THESE TIRES AND IT IS SERIOUS! THERE'S ALSO ALSO A PROBLEM WITH SOME OF YOUR DEALERS AS WELL, BECAUSE THEY ALSO REFUSED TO REPLACE THESE FOUR TIRES UNDER WARRANTY JUST AS THEY DID FOR THE BLOWOUT. THEY PRORATED MY TIRE USAGE WITH NO KNOWN MILEAGE OF WHEN THE TIRES WERE ORIGINALLY PURCHASED BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T DOCUMENT IT. ALL FIVE OF THESE TIRES SHOULD HAVE BEEN REPLACED UNDER FACTORY WARRANTY WITH NO CHARGE! THEY NEED TO BE RECALLED IMMEDIATELY BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED!

WENT TO START ENGINE IN THE TRUCK AFTER SETTING OVER NIGHT UNDER MY CARPORT AND SPARK PLUG BLEW OUT OF THE HEAD . THIS TRUCK HAS A 5.4 LITER V8
