1994 Isuzu Trooper Tires & wheels Problems

Owner-reported complaints naming the tire or wheel system, filed with NHTSA

Data refreshed

Tires & wheels reportsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

THE RECENT DEATHS OF 62 PEOPLE DRIVING THE FIRESTONE 15" TIRES SHOULD ALSO RAISE THE CONCERN THAT THE WILDERNESS 16" TIRES HAVE THE SAME DEFECTS AND THEY WILL EXPLODE. MINE DID!! FIRESTONE IS STILL DENYING THAT THE 16" TIRES HAVE A PROBLEM. THEY ARE STILL TRYING TO COVER UP THEIR MISTAKES. UNFORTUNATELY, OTHERS MUST DIE BEFORE ANYTHING CAN BE DONE. PLEASE SEND THIS INFORMATION TO THE SENATE SUBCOMMITTEE THAT IS INVESTIGATING FIRESTONE AND FORD. THEY ARE BOTH AT FAULT FOR THIS COVER-UP SINCE 1992. MY PHONE NUMBER IS (318) 377-2797 IF YOU HAVE ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS. THANK YOU.( DOT NUMBER: TIRE SIZE: 255 70 R16 )
