MY 2001 FORD EXCAPE HAS 27,600 MILES ON IT. MY TIRES HAVE WORN OUT FROM THE OUTSIDE IN. I CARRIED IT TO THE LOCAL FORD DEALER AND WAS TOLD I NEEDED A 4 WHEEL ALIGNMENT. MY DEALER SAID I HAD RECEIVED A CHECK BEFORE I BOUGHT IT. I DID NOT. I DROVE IT OFF THE SHOWROOM FLOOR. NOW I HAVE TO BUY OVER $400 WORTH OF TIRES AND HAVE AN ALIGNMENT. THE LOCAL DEALER SAID I WOULD HAVE TO HAVE HAD A PRETTY GOOD LICK FOR IT TO HAVE ALL 4 OUT OF ALIGNMENT. I DO NOT HOTDOG THIS CAR. I FEEL LIKE THIS IS A MANUFACTURERS DEFECT
