Example complaints

Tires: “While towing my enclosed car hauler trailer, with a classic car inside, my right rear tire on my f250 super duty pickup exploded. I was running 70 MPH at the time in alabama. I did not wreck but I really had to fight to keep it on the road until I could stop. The tire is in two pieces. The firestone store in pensacola, florida said the tire is not one of their recalls. However, I understand these same tires on the excursions are. Why are the same tires, when installed on f250 pickups, not included in the recall? …”

Air bags: “I have to haul small children in the front seat of my pickup and I do not have a passenger side airbag switch so that I can turn it off. I am afraid that if I were involved in an accident that one of them would be injured by the airbag.”

Engine cooling: “2000 f250 sd 7.3 diesel incident date 2/15/2010 2/12/2010 I took my truck into the dealer to get a oil change and a recall fixed on the cruise control. That morning when I started it up, it had a noise when I turned the wheel, when I brought it in, they said the gasket on my power steering had gone bad, and I needed a complete replacement of my power steering pump. Now is when the real problem starts... I had not experienced this problem prior to the dealer visit. …”
