- 2004 Ford Explorer
2004 Explorer is in the shop now. 4WD light comes on and when the steering wheel is turned the truck feels like it will not make the turn as if a wheel is going to fall off. Mechanic called and ONE tire has a better tread depth than the other three which is the reason the 4WD light is coming on. He said truck is engaging itself into 4WD and I have to get 4 NEW tires - although all of the tires are in good shape. The newer tire is about 6 months old as I had a nail in the old one. When it was installed the tire depths were checked and looked good. Can this be true? I have to buy four new tires bc of one newer tire? Getting used ones means the same thing could happen!!
How does this make any sense? So every person who gets ONE damaged tire has to replace all 4 every time? I am infuriated and I dont have any money for 4 new tires!
