A rear flat tire, inconvenient but not a disaster, unless the manufacturer tools you are supplied with cant possible undo the lug nuts, now the situation could turn dangerous.. Ford puts a cover over the lug nuts, that the supplied lug wrench wont fit, or any standard tool kit, ' of course the dealership has one,,,, why on earth should i have to have my car towed to a ford dealer to get the tire changed…

Tech experienced the same thing trying to use his power driver to remove them. He reported that lugnuts were striped due to aluminum coatiing and that caused the over tightening. I was stranded for 2 hours. Would not come off due to aluminum…

Continental contiprocontact tires, 235/55r17. Car currently has 18,800 miles of normal driving at conservative speeds. Tire tread depth is now 5/32'. Totally unacceptable for a tire rated at 60k miles. For new car purchases, continental has no tread wear replacement policy. This is ridiculous and unacceptable. If purchased for after-market use, it would be covered for a pro-rata replacement. Why are these tires…

We only have 16000 miles on this car and two tires are at 5/32 tread depth. Ford says the will not warranty them until 3/32. This creates a hazard for us as we live in a snow belt of the u.p. Michigan. This tread depth is not good enough for traction on snow and ice.

Got a certified preowned 2016 awd ford escape with original manufacturer jack and lug wrench. Got a flat on driving on a well maintained gravel road going 20 mph. There was less then 2000 miles on the new kelly as 235/55 r17 wheels (no road hazard! Just gravel). Tmps system worked, pulled over right away and watched the tire deflate in front of my eyes! Got jack and donut out. Lug wrench does not fit lug nuts.…
