Read complaints for FIRESTONE FR710 (Unknown)
I own a 2001 ford taurus. The front and rear coil springs have been replaced two times over the years. There was a recall on the front springs but none on the rear. My recent incident occurred in october. I had five kids in the car whenthe front coil broke off and ripped the tire. The cost to fix was $1,700. Why hasn't there been a stronger demand for ford to fix this problem. Searching the internet i know this is a widespread problem.

Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6)i purchased four firestone fr710 tires on august 27, 2009 from a local firestone dealer for my 2006 toyota sienna. Recently we noticed that the front right tire's tread was delaminating all around the perimeter of the tire where the tread meets the sidewall. In some places there was 1/2" of separation. Upon closer inspection it was found that two of the other tires were also starting to separate. This was evident due to small hairline separations running around the perimeter of the tires in the same region as the worst tire. These tires were all made within a week of each other with date codes of 1909 and 2009 (19th and 20th week of 2009). The dot number is w56v710. The vin of the vehicle is [xxx] . The mileage at purchase was 49,328 and the current mileage is 61,491. Photos of the tires are available.

Firestone 710 tires. Less than 20,000 miles, tread is gone, does not handle on ice and snow. Tires are sold in minnesota, were it snows a lot. Tires rotated once so company will not stand by 65,000 mile warranty. Highway miles, no reason for tread to have worn off so soon. Please check if tire is defective and if should be sold in areas where it snows quite often. I have almost gone off the road many times this winter, seems like your gliding on air.
