2004 Ford F-150 Tires Temporary Emergency Spare Tire Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	588767
Internal NHTSA #	10157848
Manufacurer	FORD MOTOR COMPANY
Brand	FORD
Model	F-150
Model Year	2004
File date	03/05/06
Component	TIRES:TEMPORARY/EMERGENCY SPARE TIRE
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	On the ford f-150 trucks mine is a 2004 the spare tires are mounted with the air filler valve mounted on the top side. You can not get at the air valve to check tire pressure. The only way is to remove jack handle from rear seating area and follow the procedures to lower the tire. Well that is not going to happen so when you need the spare usually in an emergency situation the tire could be under inflated or perhaps flat. I have tried to contact ford and the will not respond to my complaint. Please can you help me and thousands of others many who are not even aware of this. The selling dealers service manager was not aware of this until i questioned them. I also have a 2005 ford escape and the spare is mounted with air valve down so checking air is not an issue. I believe that if it is do able on chevrolet, dodges and others ford can make it right . Regards dave emmons. *nm
