Three problems related to tire have been reported for the 1997 Mercury Tracer. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
While driving felt severe vibration and loud noise at all speeds and car pulling to the right hard. Vibration became worse about 8 miles later, car was not drivable and almost ran off the road. The tread separated from the tire. Pulled over, put the spare on. Pep boys replaced both front tires, the other tire had tread failure also. Pep boys refused to give me the defective tires.
See attached letter. No letter attached. (dot number: bf76tu1135 tiresize: 185/65/14).
The steering wheel shakes due to the front right tire that had a knot on it and the two back tires were out of round. (goodyear 185-65 adv+822626).
