First off there has been no failure as yet. I couldn't get this far without saying there was. I just want to know what about the tires I have is any different than the ones being recalled" I still don't hear why they are failing. If as I suspect that it is the glue is there a different glue used on 16"? I'm curious too about whether the tire is responsible for the feeling that the vehicle could roll very easily. I've noticed in a couple of circumstances of quick braking to avoid an accident that the vehicle like the center of gravity is somewhere above the top of the cab. This is not in a situation where the vehicle is sliding side ways either. It just feels like it could very easily flip over. I see no apparent flaws in the tires at this point and they seem to be wearing as well as any other tire on the market. They just don't feel right and didn't prior to the recall action. This is a fyi from me to you and at this point I hold little if any hope of these being recalled. What is your advice for me" thanks for your time.

The windshield has had two rock chips in the first two months of ownership. This contrasts with my last pickup that had no chips in 12 years of use. I have talked with other Ranger owners with same problem. Glass company employees tell me this is due to light weight glass used.
