Recall campaign number 05t022000; I have a 2004 F-150 with the continental contitrac tire on it original equipment. I have had to replace the tires after just 35000 miles of life. This is a 50000 mile tire. I feel this recall should be extended to the 2004 model year F-150 as well.
The contact owns a 2004 Ford f150. The tire manufacturer is continental tires, contritrac, size p255/65r17. It is a tubeless radial tire. At only 3000 miles the truck shook . They changed two tires because the tires were not good. On June 27, 2005 the rear driver's side tire blew out.
I have a 2004 f150 4x4 reg. Cab 4x4 pick up truck. It has goodyear wrangler tires on it. Lt275/65 18c wrangler at/s. They keep cupping. I am now on my 5th set of tires. Ford wants to and did at one time put on p275/65 18 on the truck. I was against this dropping to a p metric tire. They now reinstalled the light truck tires again at my request. Ford stated that they know they have a problem with these tires. My biggest concern is that they are dropping to a p metric from a light truck. The cupping is also a safety concern with not getting good contact with the road. I will give you the fist date this happened. The first time I only had 181 miles on my truck.
I purchased my 2004 f150 supercab 2x4 August 12 and paid my first payment to Ford motor credit September 11. It has 4500 miles on it and already needed four new tires! during the past month I have had seven (7) flats. Granted, I drive five miles (one way) down a dirt road sometimes twice a day, but that's exactly why I wanted a truck, I thought it could handle it. I showed the tires to the service department at the dealership where I purchased my truck, their response: it looks like somebody has been peeling out on gravel that gravel is really eating up this truck" "I'm sorry, we can't help you". Actually, the tires look like somebody has been doing donuts on barbed wire or run through a meat tenderizer, chewed up. Rocks the size of english peas are cutting / puncturing these tires. Is anybody else having the same tire issue?.
