Ford to replace up to 13 million Firestone tires
Ford Motor Co will spend about 3 billion to recall as many as 13 million Firestone tires over nine months for safety. Bridgestone/Firestone says the tires are safe. Tauzin announced after meeting with Ford CEO Jacques Nasser on Capitol Hill that customers can return recalled tires to Ford dealers for free replacements. Ford cited safety links to 174 deaths and 700 injuries from Wilderness AT tires on Explorers, while Firestone disputed design and inflation level factors. The recall follows a prior 6.5 million tire recall and Ford-GM-Firestone tensions amid ongoing investigations and hearings.
