I received a letter from martin inglis, vp Ford north America, stating my "2000 Ranger was not affected by this recall". Today I had to change my left rear wilderness at p245/75r16- dot w270 as it was flat. When the spare was lowered down for the first time, I noticed it was a radial atx p235/75r15. On the back of mr. Inglis's letter of 8. 17. 00 it states all p235/75r15 tires were recalled. Perhaps, other Ford owners who received that letter might want to check their spares. Obviously, one cannot rely on Ford to supply accurate information. . 0( dot number: vdhl tire size: p235/75r15 ).
I have the 16" firestone tires not under recall, however it is important to note that after learning of the recall I checked the air pressure in the tires of my new vehicle cold. Right front at 34. 5 psi, right rear at 33. 5 psi,left front at 32. 5 psi, and left rear at 32 psi. The tires should have been inflated to 30 psi. It would appear that Ford does not control the inflation of the tires correctly.
