“Tire tread pealed off my tire causing significant damages to my side step, the metal around my tire wheel got bent up into my door and tore off all my wheel well plastic. Almost caused my front bumper to come off it is now torn on that side and a plastic piece under the bumper is barely hanging in there. I still have the tire as it didn't deflate. My steering wheel clicks and makes my car skip when I make a left hand turn. As if the tires are not turning correctly. The air bag light is on!”

NHTSA complaint #10197734, filed 2007-07

“I had bought a used 2002 Ford explorer xlt a few months ago and noticed a lot of horizantal cuts on the sidewalls of the michelan tires on the vehicle. After looking on this web site and noticed a recall for the Ford that I owned ( NHTSA campaign id # 01v171000 ) and took it to the dealership near me. They said they had no recall in their system for my vehicle even though my Ford was made at this louisville, kentucky plant at the time specified on this recall. I even called the Ford complaint line and they as well said nothing was in their system? …”
