2002 Ford Mustang Tires & Wheels Problems

WE WERE GOING AROUND A CURVE ABOUT 45 MPH AND HEARD A POP LIKE SOMETHING HARD BROKE. DID NOT KNOW WHAT IT WAS AT THE TIME. WENT TO THE SHOP UP THE ROAD AND PULLED OVER THE PIT AND LOOK UNDER THE CAR, AFTER 10 OR 15 MIN SEEN WHAT LOOKED LIKE A CRACK ON THE BACK OF ONE OF THE FIVE SPOKES ON THE REAR RIM A BUDDY OF OURS SAID COME UP HERE AND LOOK ITS BROKE I COULD PULL FISHING LINE THROUGH IT, WENT UP AND TALKED ABOUT IT. JUST DON'T WANT ANYONE TO GET KILLED IF IT HAPPENS AT THE WRONG TIME. NO MARKS OR ANY REASON IT SHOULD HAVE BROKE. DO I NEED TO LET ANYONE LOOK AT THIS TO SEE IF THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THEM. THANKS SURPRISED. *TR

LESS THEN 2WEEKS AFTER PURCHASE A CHUNK OF THE TREAD CAME OFF THE TIRE . THE TIRE DID NOT GO FLAT BUT MAINTAINED 35 PSI. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 FORD MUSTANG WITH FEDERAL SUPER STEELE TIRES, LINE SIZE 245/45 R17. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE AND REAR PASSENGER SIDE TIRES SPLIT ALONG THE SIDEWALL. WITHIN 4,000 MILES THE SAME FAILURE OCCURRED ON THE FRONT PASSENGER AND REAR DRIVER SIDE TIRES. THE MANUFACTURER REPLACED THE TIRES EVERY TIME THE FAILURE OCCURRED YET THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE TIRES WERE REPLACED WITH DEFECTIVE TIRES. THE CONTACT WAS CONCERNED BECAUSE THE TIRES FAILED AT LESS THEN 20,000 MILES. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 64,000.

I HAVE GOODYEAR EAGLE LS TIRES ON MY 2002 FORD MUSTANG THAT KEEP BLOWING OUT ON THE INSIDE AND SHREDDING THE TIRE. IN 3 YEARS I HAVE PURCHASED 4 TIRES AND HAD ANOTHER BLOWOUT LAST NIGHT THAT SHREDS THE INSIDE OF THE TIRE. I HAD JUST HAD THIS TIRE CHECKED ON THE 8TH OF APRIL AND THE TIRE WAS FINE. *TR

CONSUMER WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH WHEN HEARD A LOUD "POP" NOISE. THE RIGHT REAR TIRE BLEW OUT AT THE SIDEWALL. GOODYEAR EAGLE, LS 225/55R16, DOT- M6T4BMER0902 22,674 MILES ON TIRE, ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT.*AK

WHILE DRIVING, AT 55 MPH THE REAR PASSENGER TIRE EXPERIENCED TREAD SEPARATION. GOODYEAR TIRE, P225/55R16. *AK. THE SECOND TIME WHILE DRIVING 10 MILES PER HOUR, THE DRIVER'S SIDE REAR TIRE EXPERIENCED TREAD SEPARATION, ON BOTH OCCASIONS THE RIMS WERE DAMAGED. *TS *JB

ON NOV. 3RD OF THIS YEAR MY SON HAD A BLOW OUT WITH ONE OF THE NEW EAGLE LS TIRES. HE WAS PULLING INTO A DRIVEWAY AND HIT THE CURB WITH HIS FRONT RIGHT TIRE. HE TOOK THE TIRE TO A GOODYEAR DEALER AND TOLD HIM WHAT HAD HAPPENED. THE DEALER TOLD HIM THAT HITTING THE CURB CAUSED THE TIRE TO BLOW. THIS TIRE HAD ONLY 2341 MILES ON IT AND I DO NOT THINK THAT HITTING A CURB WHILE ENTERING A PARKING LOT SHOULD CAUSE THIS TIRE TO BLOW. THIS PAST WEEKEND I WAS LOOKING OVER THE OTHER TIRES AND FOUND A BULGE ON THE LEFT FRONT TIRE. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF YOU HAVE RECEIVED ANY OTHER COMPLIANTS ABOUT THIS TIRE. THE TIRE WHICH I AM ASKING ABOUT IS THE P225/55R16 94T S1 EAGLE LS. CAN YOU PLEASE GET BACK TO ME WITH ANY INFORMATION THAT YOU MAY HAVE ON THIS TIRE. DT

LUGS: NUTS FELL OFF. CONSUMER WAS TOLD BY DEALER THAT HE SHOULD RETORT LUGS: NUTS AFTER SO MANY MILES. BUT NOTHING WAS MENTIONED IN THE DRIVER'S MANUAL.*AK CONSUMER STATED THAT HE FOUND TWO OTHER LUG NUTS FOUND LOOSE. *YH
