Actually, Mike Cunt, Exploderers with OTHER tires were also tipping over in an alarming rate. There were Ford internal memos that questioned the safety of Exploderer design, which led to several lawsuit wins against Flips OveR Dead. I do not killfile nor use do-not-call lists.

Man, are you fucking stupid or what!? It is *WELL* known in the automotive industry, that Ford Explorers are prone to roll over…even more so that their counter parts. > That may be your opinion but it is not true
Sorry moron, that’s a *FACT*. > and not veritable > the the court records. > mike hunt
Your a complete idiot. There doesn’t need to be any "court records" to document vehicle behavior or problems. Early Hondas had a problem with the main power relay…oh wait! Never mind! It must not be true because there are no "court records" saying so! More proof you know nothing about what you say. Get out.

It was an article at MSNBC.com. Last time I checked the archives (about a year ago) it was still there, saying the same thing. You’d think they would have been sued by now if there wasn’t some truth to it. If you check the msnbc archives, you’ll probably still find the article there.

Anybody know if Honda Canada has (or will) replace/recall vehicles with Firestone Tires?
Response:
Why would Honda recall tires? I do not killfile nor use do-not-call lists.

Why would they unless there is some major disaster that befalls Hondas specifically caused by Firestone tires? Are you thinking of the Ford Explorer problems? That problem does not apply to cars, only overweight high center of gravity SUVs that were spec’d with under-capacity tires which were then improperly inflated while being (mis)driven by idiots.

They don’t have any problem other than being cheap and crappy. They will not recall unless lots of them blow and kill people. And the previous cases (other tires and other makers) showed us that even then, it takes some time before they do something. They know very well that they are crappy and wear very quickly, they got exactly what they paid for to save some money. I sold my 2001 Civic after 18 months and the tires were finished after only one summer (drove 2 winters with winter tires).

What’s really funny is that the Explorers had a higher failure rate with the tires that replaced the Firestones!
Response:
You have to be kidding or are simply Ford bashing. Do you just make this stuff up? If there was even a semblance of truth to that, the shark lawyers would have had field day and there is no record of anything like that happening. One of Fords best defenses during litigation was the fact the Explorers with non Firestone tires were NOT having a problem and other vehicles with the same tire as on the Explorer, had failures as well. In the end even Firestone stopped trying to blame Ford or the Explorer for their tire problem. There was an article in the Chicago Tribune newspapers of the class action suit settlement with Firestone that listed a bunch of different Firestone tires, not only the ones use on the Explorer, for which owner could be reimbursed.
