FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:AUXILLARY TANK:SELECTOR DEVICES
I HEARD ON THE NEWS THAT 1993 FORD TRUCKS WERE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH ONE FUEL TANK FILLING INTO THE OTHER AND OVERFLOWING. OBVIOUSLY THIS IS A FIRE HAZZARD. I HAVE A 1994 F150 THAT IS DOING THE SAME THING BUT FORD SAYS THAT IT IS NOT INCLUDED IN ANY RECALLS. OBVIOUSLY I THINK THIS IS WRONG. SPILLING FUEL IS SPILLING FUEL. I APPRECIATE ANY HELP THAT YOU CAN GIVE ME. THANKS

TIRES
TIRE BLOWOUT; DRIVING WITH CRUISE CONTROL @ APPROX. 60 MPH ON OPEN HIGHWAY. LEFT/REAR TIRE (DRIVER'S SIDE) SUDDENLY BLEW OUT WITHOUT WARNING OR PRIOR EVIDENCE OF POSSIBLE TIRE FAILURE. TREAD IS VERY MUCH SEPARATED AND SIDEWALLS, BOTH INSIDE AND OUTSIDE (AS RELATING TO TIRE PLACEMENT ON TRUCK) HAVE APPROX. 30-40 SLASHES IN THEM. IT APPEARS AS THOUGH THE TIRES SECTIONS (POSSIBLY BELTS?) JUST CAME APART AND THE TREAD PORTION OF THE TIRE CAME OFF. LIKE PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED, THE TIRE HAD SHOWN NO WARNING SIGNS OF POSSIBLE FAILURE, WAS NOT UNDERINFLATED, WAS NOT ANYWHERE NEAR CLOSE TO THE POINT OF HAVING INSUFFICIENT TREAD WEAR (STILL APPROX. 3/8" TREAD LEFT ON TIRE) OR DID NOT SHOW ANY SUPERFICIAL DAMAGE TO THE SIDEWALL OR TREAD. THE DAMAGE CAUSED TO MY VEHICLE HAS STILL YET TO BE PROPERLY EVALUATED AND OFFICIALLY DETERMINED, ALTHOUGH IT APPEARS THERE MAY BE SOME DAMAGE TO THE WHEEL ITSELF AND POSSIBLE DAMAGE TO THE HUB AND SUPENSION UNITS, NOT TO MENTION ALIGNMENT AND WHATEVER ELSE SHOWS UP IN THE DAMAGE EVALUATION AND ASSESSMENT. *AK (TIRESIZE: 235/70 R15)( DOT NUMBER: TIRE SIZE: 235/70 R15 )
