| Description of the problem | Goodyear-integrity (p235/60r16) (99s) (025941) tires on 2004 ford freestar. Noticed thumping noise at 10,000 miles. Sounding like you have a flat. At 19,000 tires are showing overlap of tread. Ford dealer told us to rotate tires. This has not resolved problem. We are afraid that the tires are going to separate and cause an accident. *nm |
