Contact had a problem with the tires on new 2005 Ford F150. He has had to have the tires rebalanced every 100-200 miles.the dealer replaced 3 of the tires because they could not get them to balance within the limits. The first tire was replaced at 56 miles. Now the left front tire has a hunk of tread out of the tire. They were saying vehicle hit something to cause this, but vehicle has not hit anything, and that the tire was a road hazard. Also, it was not covered under the warranty. There was vibration in steering wheel while driving 50-60 mph. They put a stabilizer on the left rear in the frame to try and correct the problem, but the tires still were unbalanced.
