(mainly in the cooler climates) mainly on the inner side of the tyre small cracks appear in the side walls. If you have this problem take it to a Ford dealer for full not out of pocket replacement of the effected tyres (not limited to tyre wear) If you take it to a beaurepairs then they will do a warranty but charge you for the usage (wear) of the effected tyres. I has a sh*t fight to get mine replaced as noticed the issue when in Katherine I Oct / Nov 03 and went to Beaurepairs and not ford.. Got my money eventualy...
