Lugnuts on wheels are rounded and swelling making it impossible for the tool to fit over them to remove. this is a safety hazard because this will prolong the time a person is on the side of the road increasing the chance of harm.

My car began making really loud humming that got louder as i drove faster. on occasion i would feel it 'slip' at high speeds but i knew it wasn't the transmission. it turned out that all 4 sets of the wheel bearings were locking up . because the bearings are supposed to be in a sealed environment they shouldn't have been exposed to the elements for one, and i had to replace the entire wheel hub for all 4 since the bearings alone are not serviceable.
I purchased 2 bf goodrich g-force sport comp-2 radial 205/50.r16 87z sl tires on april 15, 2019 from amazon, installed on front tire positions on may 9, 2019. rear tires are general g-max as-03 which are the same size and were used the summer before with no issues, still significant tread life left and no damage. all four tires were inflated to 36 psi after installation. when driving on any kind of moisture, rain night before or drizzle or pouring rain, front tires do not grip road surface and have almost led to numerous accidents at varying speeds on rural roads, city streets, and highways, anywhere from 20mph to 75mph. i have now become used to the danger of the bf goodrich tires and drive extremely slowly in wet conditions. as i have a manual transmission front wheel drive vehicle, i always put the new tires on the front to ensure traction in bad weather conditions, the bf goodrich tires have almost gotten me killed more than a handful of times. as stated by another consumer, i also had trouble mounting one of the bf goodrich tires to the wheel as it did not want to bead and now the ...
Tires are wearing out on the inside a lot faster. am on 3rd set the first two sets did this and the dealer said the alignment was fine. i.feel this is a safety hazard as a cursory inspection of the tires looks ok but if you get on the ground to check the inside part the wear will be alarming. i went online to check message boards for this model and numerous other people had the same issue.
Takata recall i noticed that this vehicle "chugs" when it is sitting idle, and that sometimes it feels as if it wants to stall while idling. there is already a recall out for this issue but i have not been informed of it. it says that 10/22/2018 there was a recall for this issue. onto the next issue, without warning my vehicle began to shake (this car is my daily driver) and then i began to hear whining whenever i would turn! help!
My 2013 ford focus tire rod "slipped out" and was replaced. the part was not broken but the threads on the male bolt slipped out and became disconnected while exiting a parking. the part came out during the transition from reverse to drive while stopped and straightening the wheel. the female part on the tire rod became disconnected. i have concern that that is a part malfunction and this should not happen. i have a video of the parts at the time of the incident that shows the part is not been broken and did not have damage. this car has not been involved in any accidents. there is rust on the threads and i feel that contributed to it coming apart. i believe that this part is a manufacturers defect.
