Two problems related to tire sidewall have been reported for the 2006 Ford F-250. The most recently reported issues are listed below.

1 Tire Sidewall problem

Failure Date: 10/11/2014

I purchased this vehicle with a full set of the exact same tire brand, type, size, and load range. The new tires were to replace the defective tires which had the exact same problem as these: belt failure. Tire failure: belts began to separate leading to uneven wear and eventually failure of the sidewall.

2 Tire Sidewall problem

Failure Date: 11/09/2008

My tires sidewalls are completely coming apart with deep cracks in sidewalls. The tires are not very old,the pick-up isn't used for hauling heavy loads and has not been stored in hot areas. . The tires have been rotated regularly and have been inspected by a tire place that has said that the truck is not safe to drive. The consequences of these tires coming apart obviously would result in a major accident which could result in death. I have tried to get the tires replaced but have gotten no-where and was only offered a possible small rebate after would have paid full price for a new set.
