Description of the problem | Luckily i was driving in a parking lot and had just crossed a speed bump. My spare tire fell off the underside of the truck. The spare tire cable had broken. As of this date i have not yet notified the dealer. As this is a safety issue i fully expect ford to pay for the replacement. I could have been traveling on the freeway and caused a huge accident when the cable broke and dropped the tire. *jb |
