BOUGHT BFG COMMERCIAL T/A TIRES FROM COSTCO LAKE ELSINORE, CA ON 05-23-2015 I WENT BACK TO COSTCO WITH A HANDLING COMPLAINT AFTER A RECENT CAMPING TRIP FIRST TIME ON THESE TIRES. WITH MY 29 FOOT TRAVEL TRAILER MY TRUCK HANDLES VERY POORLY TIRE SIDE WALLS FEEL VERY SOFT MAKES HANDLING A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. TRUCK FEELS LIKE ITS WANDERING AND WHEN TRYING TO STOP THE TRAILER THE TIRES FEEL AS IF THEY ARE TRYING TO COME OF THE RIMS. MY TRUCK IS A 2004 FORD F-350 SRW TRUCK MORE THAN CAPABLE OF TOWING THIS TRAILER. THE TRUCKS MILEAGE AT THE TIME OF INSTALL WAS 154601 CURRENT MILEAGE IS 155061 SO I HAVE PUT A TOTAL OF 460 MILES ON THESE TIRES. COSTCO WOULD ONLY REBALACE AND ROTATE TIRES WITHOUT ANY OF MY SAFTEY CONCERNS ADDRESSED.

WHEN GOING AROUND CURVES, HITTING SMALL BUMPS, OR STOPPING, THE FRONT END STARTS TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY. SLOWING DOWN OR STOPPING IS THE ONLY WAY TO STOP THE SHAKING. THE TRUCK HAS BEEN TAKEN TO SEVERAL REPAIR SHOPS WITH NO AVAIL. THEY CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG. THIS PROBLEM IS VERY DANGEROUS. I'M GETTING SCARED TO DRIVE IT.

2004 F350 TRUCK WITH NEW TIRES PUT ON BY LANGDALE FORD DEALER ARE WRONG SIZE AND A DAMAGED WHEEL - I BOUGHT THIS TRUCK ON SEPT 2 2009, DURING TEST DRIVE I ADVISE SALESMAN CHRIS LANE ABOUT A ROUGH RIDE AND I THOUGH MAYBE A TIRE WAS OUT OF BALANCE. HE TOLD ME THAT IT WAS FLAT SPOTS FROM SITTING ON THE LOT AND IT WOULD SMOOTH OUT AS I DROVE IT. AFTER 1 & A HALF WEEKS I CALLED BACK AND WAS REFERRED TO A JACK SR. WHOM IS THE SERVICE MANAGER. HE ADVISED ME THEY WOULD FOR $80-85.00 HR. PUT IT ON A COMPUTER AND CHECK IT OUT. I TOLD HIM IT WAS A TIRE OR WHEEL PROBLEM AND NO COMPUTER WOULD BE NEEDED BUT HE REFUSED ANY FURTHER HELP AND WAS VERY RUDE. FORD MTR, CO. WAS CONTACTED AND THEY CONTACTED LANGDALE ON MY BEHALF BUT GOT BRUSHED OFF TOO. THE WHEEL WAS FOUND BY A LOCAL TIRE SHOP AND THEY SAID THAT I HAD A UNSAFE WHEEL, IT HAD BEEN HEATED UP BY A CUTTING TORCH AND MADE TO FIT THIS TRUCK. THEY ORDER ME ANOTHER TIRE AND PUT IT ON THE SPARE RIM THAT HAD THE CORRECT TIRE SIZE BUT WOULD NOT MATCH THE OTHER TIRES ON THE TRUCK. UPON MY VISIT TO THE TIRE SHOP I WAS TOLD THAT THE WRONG SIZE TIRES HAD BEEN PUT ON BY LANGDALE FORD. THEY HAD PUT SIZE- 245/75R16 WIDER TIRES ON THE TRUCK AND IT WAS SUPPOSE TO BE 235/85R16 NARROW TIRES AND THAT I COULD HAVE A PROBLEM WHEN WEIGHT WAS ADDED TO THESE TIRES IN THE REAR (DUEL TIRE TRUCK) CAUSING THE TIRES TO HEAT UP AND BLOW OUT. LUCKILY WE FOUND THESE PROBLEMS BEFORE TRAVELING WITH A LOAD AND THE BAD WHEEL DID NOT BRAKE THE STUDS. THESE WHEELS/TIRES ARE HEAVY AND COULD HAVE BEEN A BAD AND DEADLY MISSILE ON THE HIGHWAY. I HAD ALSO FOUND THE TAIL PIPE LOSE FROM THE BACK TWO HANGERS THE DAY I BROUGHT THE TRUCK HOME BUT I FIXED THESE. THE DEALERS NEED TO BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR SAFETY OF VEHICLES THEY PUT ON THE PUBLIC HIGHWAYS. *TR

I WAS LEAVING MY HOME WITH MY TRAVEL TRAILER FOR VACATION. I MADE IT TO THE FIRST TRAFFIC LIGHT AND HAD GREAT DIFFICULTY STOPPING THE VEHICLE. THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT STRAIGHT TO THE FLOOR, I NEEDED TO USE THE TRAILER BRAKES TO STOP. AFTER DRIVING VERY SLOWLY HOME I DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS A FAULTY BRAKE LINE. THIS WAS NOT AN ORDINARY TYPE LINE, THIS WAS A STAINLESS STEEL LINE THAT HAD SOME TYPE OF SEALING DEVICE IN THE ENDS THAT FAILED. THERE ARE TWO MORE OF THE SAME TYPE LINES ON THE VEHICLE. I HAVE GREAT CONCERN THAT IF ONE OF THESE LINES FAILED WILL THE OTHER TWO FAIL? THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A HORRIFIC ACCIDENT HAD I NOT BEEN ABLE TO USE TRAILER BRAKES TO STOP THE VEHICLE. *TR
