| My dick cepec fc ii tires had the tread seperate from the steel belts. three developed air bubbles in the tread area, but one slung the tread off causing damage to my truck. i was told by dick cepec that the numbers didn't match the recalled tires so they would not be responsible for the tires or any damage. | |||

| Ford f-250 king ranch i am a 5 time repeat ford customer. my f-250 has a bounce in that cannot be cured. ford had me replace all 4 tires to correct the problem with no results. after spending the money on the tires, ford tells me it is a normal characteristic of the truck. i have recent service invoices with checked and ok at this time ratings on all 4 of the old tires. ford will not fix the problem, or refund my tires. i have been to 3 dealerships and in communication with ford motor company. this seems to be a common problem that ford does not want to stand behind. *tr | |||
