Description of the problem | Dt: the contact owns a 2005 ford f150. He purchased the vehicle three weeks ago. The vehicle only had 1800 miles, and it shook badly. He took the vehicle to the dealership, and they said it looked as if chunks had been cut out of the tires. It was the coal mines, where consumer worked, that was the cause of the cuts in the tires. Consumer denied it, claiming he did not work in the coal mines, and driveway was gravel and should not have caused the cuts in the tires. Two or three of the tires had cuts. *ak |
