TIRE BRAND AND SIZE: PATHFINDER SPORT S A/T 245/75-16 PUT ON REAR OF 2003 FORD E250 EXTENDED LENGTH WORK VAN. BOUGHT NEW FROM DISCOUNT TIRE. AS SOON AS I GOT ON THE INTERSTATE I NOTICED THE VEHICLE FELT UNSTABLE. WAS WANDERING IN REAR. WHEN MAKING A LANE CHANGE IS WAS REALLY BAD AND FELT UNSAFE AS THE REAR SWAYED FROM SIDE TO SIDE. HAD THEM TAKE THESE TIRES OFF AND REPLACE WITH A MAJOR BRAND AND THIS PROBLEM WENT AWAY. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND SOME ONE LOOKS INTO THESE TIRES AS I THINK THE POTENTIAL IS THERE FOR CAUSING A SPIN OUT OR ROLL OVER.

I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE (#05S28) FROM FORD CONCERNING A DEFECTIVE SPEED CONTROL DEACTIVATION SWITCH (CREATING A FIRE HAZARD) ON A VEHICLE I OWN. WHEN I CONTACTED DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPARTMENTS AS INSTRUCTED (TWO DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS) I WAS TOLD THE NECESSARY PARTS WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE UNTIL AT LEAST DECEMBER 07 BUT THAT I COULD HAVE THE SPEED CONTROL DISCONNECTED UNTIL PARTS WERE AVAILABLE (MEANING TWO TRIPS TO THE DEALERSHIP - TWO DAYS WITHOUT USE OF A COMPANY VEHICLE). I HAVE CONTACTED FORD DIRECTLY AND WAS TOLD THE SAME. HOW CAN IT POSSIBLY TAKE LONGER TO OBTAIN REPLACEMENTS FOR HAZARDOUS DEFECTIVE PARTS THAN IT TAKES TO ORDER A CUSTOM VEHICLE FROM THE FACTORY? DOES YOUR ORGANIZATION HAVE ANY AUTHORITY TO FORCE A MANUFACTURER TO EXPEDITE SUCH MATTERS? *TR
DT*: THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH AROUND A CURVE AN ACCIDENT OCCURRED TRYING TO AVOID AN ON-COMING VEHICLE. THE CONSUMER HIT A RAILROAD POST. THIS LAUNCHED THE VEHICLE INTO A CREEK.

DT: CALLER BOUGHT A USED VEHICLE FROM AN ARMORED CAR COMPANY. THE AIR CONDITIONER HAD A BAD COMPRESSOR. FORD OFFERED NO HELP BECAUSE THEY DID NOT WORK ON VAN CONVERSIONS. THE COMPANY CONSUMER BOUGHT THE VAN SENT HIM TO AN AIR CONDITIONING COMPANY. THEY SAID THE ENTIRE AIR CONDITIONER COMPRESSOR HAD TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK 12 TIMES BECAUSE IT BLEW HOT AIR. THE AIR CONDITIONER COMPANY RETURNED THE MONEY THE ARMORED CAR COMPANY PAID TO FIX IT, AND WILL OFFER NO MORE HELP. THE ARMORED CAR COMPANY REFERRED THE CALLER TO ANOTHER AIR CONDITIONER COMPANY, AND THEY REPAIRED THE NEW SYSTEM. NOW THE AIR CONDITIONER IS BROKEN AGAIN. THEY HAVE REPLACED THE COMPRESSOR. THE CALLER HAD TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR. MANUFACTURER HAS OFFERED NO HELP.*AK

Fire
A FORD 2003 VAN, WITH 30,000 MILES EXPERIENCES A STEERING FAILURE, WHEN THE PITMAN ARM BROKE OFF THE BOTTOM OF THE STEERING BOX. IT CLEANLY SHEARED OFF A SHAFT OF METAL WHICH IS 1 1/4 INCHES OF SOLID STEEL.*AK SINCE THE DRIVER WAS OPERATING AT LOW SPEED ON THE RAMP OF MIAMI INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT, HE STRUCK A BARRIER WITH MINIMAL SHEETMETAL DAMAGE. THE DRIVER REPORTED THAT THE STEERING WHEEL WAS SPINNING FREELY IN HIS HANDS AT THE TIME OF IMPACT. I REPORTED THIS TO FORD, WHO'S STAFF DETERMINED THAT THE SHAFT DID NOT FAIL DUE TO MANUFACTURING DEFECT. HAD THIS VEHICLE BEEN AT HIGHWAY SPEED ON A MAJOR ROADWAY, THE CAUSE OF THE ACCIDENT WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN SO CLEARLY OBVIOUS. AND SURELY A FATALITY WOULD HAVE BEEN INVOLVED. I RETAINED THE BROKEN PART. I BELIEVE THIS IS AN INCIDENT WHICH SHOULD BE REPORTED. FORD DETERMINED THAT STRIKING THE BARRIER CAUSED THE METAL TO FAIL. HOWEVER THE IMPACT WAS MINIMAL AND THOUGH A CENTERED IMPACT ON THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE THE AIRBAG DID NOT EVEN DEPLOY.
