AlladinSane said:They used the same excuse as Ford in the Explorer case: blamed the tires (Goodyear). They can be right about the tires, but looks like when ther tires have some kind of fail, it becomes more evident in high center of gravity vehicles. It astounds me how the ordinary cars are getting more and more height every day. The new Ford Fiesta is almost a minivan! That happens because car manufacturers don't know what else to do to gain internal space...then cars are getting more and more dangerous...ris said:...the merc a-class had to pretty much rebuilt on that one test
Don't mean to be too technical, but they were Firestone tires that Ford had a problem with.
