My aunt just bought 4 new tires for her Taurus in August,2000 and the week before christmas she was going to her mothers down the street about 3 blocks. Her back tire and the frount tire blew out. Does these tires have recalls on them and what can we do about it, the place where she got the tires said nothing to help her and the damage was $2500 with no one hurt. Please let me know something by email. Thank you'''( dot number: )

Ever since tire seperated and we went off the road, even the second set of new tires won't stay balenced. One to two times a month have had to have tires re-balenced. We continue to have problems with the car. The Ford dealer claims that there is no problem and general tires have not returned our calls. (tiresize: P205/65R15)( dot number: Tire size: P205/65R15 )

It isn't just the SUV's where this tire failure is occurring--fortunately I maintained control of the car. This has happened to me twice before with less than 20,000 miles on original Ford tires.
