    Tire valves all started giving me problems. I would wake up to flat tires every morning. When i would fix one, the other would start leaking air as well. I had to change all four of them because coincidentally they were all leaking air. The staff at the dealership were also trying to blame me saying that i must've hit something. It's not me, it's the car. *tr

    On 3/18/09, i had a tire fail on my 2007 ford fusion because of a re-called dill # 414 valve stem. I had to replace the michelin tire that had 10,487 miles on it. I also replaced the other three valve stems that were cracked (also dill #414). I am six weeks away from traveling from michigan to florida at interstate speeds of 70 mph. If this tire had failed at those speeds, i don't think i would have been able to…

    On 11-12-08 i parked my 20007 ford fusion in the garage at 7:00 pm . On the morning of 11-13 08 at 6;00 am the front right tire was flat. I changed the tire and took it to the ford dealer for repair. They found that the valve stem was defective and replaced same. I feel this should not have happened as the tires were properly inflated. When i inquired if this was covered by warranty, i was told it wasn't. The…
