“This complaint is concerning the michelin tires that came as oe on this car. The sidewalls of these tires began cracking that was first noticed at this date. The cracking has continued to get worst and as of this date I feel that the tires are creating a safety issue and are not reliable. These problem has also occurred with several other people that have these tires on the same cars. This is a common well known problem among owners of this car equipped with these michelin tires. However, as of this date neither Ford nor michelin will acknowledge or act on this problem. …”
