problem #4

F-350

  • 95,000 miles
The contact owns a 2008 Ford F-350. The contact stated that while driving 30 mph, the power steering failed causing the vehicle to veer erratically. The vehicle was taken to the dealer multiple times. The technician was unable to determine the failure in any of the occasions. The technician advised that the low tire pressure sensor, tires and the steering stabilizer failed, all which may have been seemingly related to the failure. The vehicle was repaired but the failure was not corrected. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 95,000 and the current mileage was 102,000.

Reporting bf goodrich commercial ta tires: Size 245R7517 this is the 2nd incident involving the bf goodrich tires on the same vehicle. 1st accident (2012)... tire blew-up on right front causing in excess of $3,000 to truck, rim and side board. Type of vehicle is a Ford F-350 Super Duty dual wheel crew cab. We have used bf goodrich for years until incident #2 on May 20,2013. This incident caused approx.$2,600 on right rear, inner tire blow-out. The tire actually threw the entire tread off leaving the belts on top of the inner tire. After calling bf goodrich, they claim no other complaints have been filed or registered with the 17" bf goodrich commercial ta and I would have to send the tire to them for lab inspection. Prior to this accident, we inspected visually all tires to meet D.O.T requirements. Estimating tread wear, etc, we feel this tire still had around 7000 to 10000 miles before bars would show. We have taken pictures of the tire before sending to bf goodrich. A statement from the driver is available. The tire started making a "thump" sound right before coming apart. I have my doubts this company will replace any tire(s) or assume any damages. It will probably take more severe cases before there is a recall or damages accepted by bf goodrich.

F-350

  • 150,000 miles
The contact owns a 2008 Ford F-350. The vehicle has treadways tempra trailcutter radial rt tires, size 30570R16 (na). Ever since the vehicle was purchased, it has been pulling towards the left. Several alignments were performed, but they did not correct the failure. An independent mechanic performed a tire rotation, which only made the failure worse. While driving less than 50 mph, the contact felt vibrations in the steering wheel and heard a loud vibrating noise. He slowed down and the front driver's side tire suddenly blew out. The dot number and VIN were unknown. The failure mileage was 150,000 and current mileage was 151,000.
