A FEW WEEKS AGO, I WAS TRAVELLING HOME WHEN THE RIGHT FRONT TIRE OF MY 1999 FORD SUPER DUTY BLEW OUT. AS I WAS DRIVING, A HEARD A LOUD BANG FOLLOWED BY A HARD PULL TO THE RIGHT AND MAJOR VIBRATIONS IN THE FRONT END OF THE VEHICLE. I WAS ABLE TO PULL THE TRUCK OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND NO ONE IN THE TRUCK WAS INJURED. IT APPEARS TO ME BY LOOKING AT THE TIRE, THAT THE TREAD HAS SEPARATED FROM THE SIDEWALL ALL THE WAY AROUND THE CIRCUMFERENCE OF THE TIRE. I TOOK THE TIRE INTO FIRESTONE TO LET THEM EXAMINE IT. THE MANAGER HAS GIVEN ME A REPORT THAT STATES "FOUND NO VISUAL PROBLEMS IN THE TIRE". WITH THIS TYPE OF BLOWOUT, I WOULD HAVE EXPECTED TO SEE SOME SCRAP STEEL IN THE TREAD OR A LARGE NAIL HOLE (OR SOMETHING). WE FOUND NO INDICATIONS THAT THE TIRE WAS INJURED. THE TIRES WERE PROPERLY INFLACTED BECAUSE I ALWAYS MAKE IT A POINT TO CHECK AIR PRESSURE ON ALL LONG ROAD TRIPS, JUST AS I DID ON NOVEMBER 19, 2000. THE TIRES HAVE MORE THAN HALF TREAD REMAINING ON THEM. I'VE REGISTERED COMPLAINTS WITH BOTH FORD AND FIRESTONE REGARDING THIS ISSUE. NO ONE IS RESPONDING OTHER THAN TO TELL ME THAT THIS IS NOT A TIRE THAT IS BEING RECALLED.6 MAYBE IT SHOULD BE. I'M CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY RIDING IN THIS VEHICLE.

THE U-BOLTS FAILED, AND THE AXEL DROPPED DOWN. WE HEARD A "THUD" , AND FELT A DROPPING SENSATION. THE STEERING IMMEDIATLEY BECAME INOPERABLE, AND THE TRUCK CRASHED INTO SEVERAL BALES OF HAY. THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR WAS DAMAGED. WHEN I CONTACTED PARKER TOYOTA, THEY CLAIMED MY EXTENDED WARRANTY DID NOT COVER THE AXEL. I THEN PAID FOR THE REPAIRS OUT OF POCKET. LATER THE SAME DAY, I PULLED A VIN HISTORY ON THE VEHICLE, AND FOUND THAT THE ODOMETER HAD BEEN ROLLED BACK. WHEN WE PURCHASED THE TRUCK, WE WERE TOLD THAT IT WAS A TRADE IN FROM A GUY THAT BOUGHT IT AT PARKER FORD, AND TRADED IT IN TO PARKER TOYOTA. THE TRUE STORY (VERIFED BY FORD MOTORS), WAS THAT THE TRUCK CAME OUT OF TERRACE, BC. IT WENT TO AUCTION IN MAY 2000, WHERE THE ODOMETER WAS CONVERTED FROM KM TO US MILES. THEY HAVE RECORDS THAT IT WENT IN TO THE ODOMETER SHOP WITH 68,000 KM, AND CAME OUT WITH 33,100 US MILES. THIS IS A MISTAKE OF NEARLY 10,000 MILES. PARKER TOYOTA ADMITS THAT THEY ARE AT FAULT FOR THE ODOMETER FRAUD, BUT REFUSES TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. WE ARE FILING SUIT AGAINST PARKER TOYOTA FOR FRAUD.*AK
