Nine problems related to tire have been reported for the 2011 Ford F-250. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Michelin ltx ms/s2 275/70 r18 tire with less than 25k had to be replaced because of tread separation. While at discount tire, spoke with another customer with same vehicle - 2012 instead of 2011 F-250 who had 3 tires with tread separation issues.
While towing a travel trailer at 55 mph with 2011 f250, experienced sudden tire roughness/bouncing. Tires were original equipment with approx. 10,000 mi. Dealer found belt separation in right-rear tire. Then a month later, while traveling at 70 mph with no load, the same thing happened at approx. 12,000 mi. Dealer found belt separation in right-front tire. All 4 original tires and spare were from same lot. Cannot trust these continental tires, so have replaced with another brand.
Tread separation continental tires in less than 6 months. 2011 Ford f 250 25,800 first time, 33500 2nd time . Ford dealer nor continental willing to do anything. These tires are going to kill someone if something isn't done.
Within two weeks and less than 200 miles three out of four tires experienced catastrophic tread speration including one on highway blowout. These truck tires had less than 20,000 miles but had been used for off road travel.
I have a 2011 Ford f250 super duty 28,000 miles, the vehicle is equipped with michelin lt275/65r20 tires. I recently noticed stress cracks alone the inner wall near the rim on all 4 tires. There is also cracks around the upper portion of the tire around the tread. Through research I have located a safety recall for these tires but in the size of lt 275/55r20. I have contacted michelin and was told to purchase new tires ( $330 x 4 ) and send these tires to them for inspection. There is a possiability of a proration but no guarantee. As in the posted safety recall this has the potential to have a partial or full loss of air making this a huge safety concern.
In reference to complaint # 10558358, I located the tire under michelin north America. The inner walls near the rim on all four tires have multiple cracks. Near the tread of two tires I have located additional cracks. These tires are only 3 years old with 28,000 miles.
