Tires
Proper tire maintenance and replacement are critical to your vehicle’s performance and helps keep you and
your passengers safe. Only use replacement tires and wheels that are the same size, load index,
speed rating and type (such as P-metric versus LT-metric or all-season versus all-terrain) as those originally
provided by Ford. The recommended tire and wheel size may be found on either the Safety
Compliance Certification Label or the Tire Label which is located on the B-Pillar or edge of the driver’s door.
If this information is not found on these labels then you should consult your Ford Dealer. Use of any
tire or wheel not recommended by Ford can affect the safety and performance of your vehicle, which could
result in an increased risk of loss of vehicle control, vehicle rollover, personal injury and death.
Additionally the use of non-recommended tires and wheels could cause steering, suspension, axle or transfer
case/power transfer unit failure. If you have questions regarding tire replacement, see an authorized
dealer. When you need to replace your tires, please visit your Ford or Lincoln Mercury Dealership for name-brand
tires and people who know your vehicle.
If your Ford or Lincoln Mercury dealership sells the name-brand tire, they can also honor the tire
manufacturer’s warranty.
Tires degrade over time depending on many factors such as weather, storage conditions, and conditions of
use (load, speed, inflation, etc.) the tires experience throughout their lives. In general, tires should be
replaced after 6 years, regardless of tread wear. However, heat caused by hot climates or frequent high loading
conditions can accelerate the aging process and may require the tires to be replaced more frequently.
You should replace your spare tire when you replace your road tires or after 6 years due to aging even if
the tire has not been used.
