NHTSA complaint #10484669, filed 2012-11, 121,000 miles“Ford f-250 king ranch I am a 5 time repeat Ford customer. My f-250 has a bounce in that cannot be cured. Ford had me replace all 4 tires to correct the problem with no results. After spending the money on the tires, Ford tells me it is a normal characteristic of the truck. I have recent service invoices with checked and ok at this time ratings on all 4 of the old tires. Ford will not fix the problem, or refund my tires. I have been to 3 dealerships and in communication with Ford motor company. This seems to be a common problem that Ford does not want to stand behind.”
