Tauzin Data Forwarded To Ford
Republican Senator Tauzin’s data on 11 replacement tyre models has been forwarded to Ford. Tauzin, chairman of the House Energy and Commerce Committee has asked Ford for a comprehensive explanation of how it decided which brands of tyres to use as replacements. He has also asked Ford to run “rig tests” on all replacement tyre brands before installing them. This follows Committee investigators’ claims that 11 of the replacement tyre models had higher damage and injury rates than the Firestone Wilderness ATs being replaced.
