 Please look at this!!! These tires are on our trucks!!
Steeltex radial tires linked to 14 SUV crashes, 5 deaths
Bridgestone/Firestone announced a recall Thursday of about 490,000 Steeltex tires linked to sport utility vehicle crashes that killed five people.
The move heads off an in-depth investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration into the Steeltex Radial A/T LT265/75R16 Load Range D tires, which have been linked to six crashes, three of which involved fatalities.
Made for use on Ford Excursions from 2000 to 2002 and some early 2003 models
Consumers can replace their tires with Steeltex and Bridgestone brands, as well as tires from the competition: Pirelli Scorpion AT, Pirelli Scorpion STR and BFGoodrich Rugged Trail TA.
Consumers can call Firestone toll free at: 1-800-465-1904 or Ford toll free at: 1-800-392-3673.
