    Firestone tires with only less than 16000 miles wore out which could cause a wreck if i have to drive vehicle in bad weather or rain. We noticed and even spoke to our dealer and mopar and nothing was done. You buy a new truck and pay over 50,000 for it you think the tire would last at least 3 to 6 yrs or at least 30,000 to 60,000 miles anyway.

    I'm having problems with trying to find tires that a) ride well, and b) look good to accommodate the tire pressure monitors. In this truck the warning light is set so high that i have to keep 80 psi in the tires. The dealer says it's a requirement by the nhtsa. Are we (consumers) stuck with this problem, or is there some kind of "fix" that would allow the dealer to adjust the warning down to something like 45 psi?…
