Discount Damaged wheels
#42
This is never going to end 😭. So I drove the truck about 250 miles July 4th weekend. I made a trip that was about two hours there and two hours back. I was pulling a trailer both ways, doing the same thing except maybe had a extra 400 pounds coming back. The trip to the destination never had a problem. Coming home the tire fault light came on and went off three times. It would flash really fast for a extended period of time then stay on. Then it would just turn off after a minute or two. I haven't drove it since because I don't use the truck much because of work. I drove for at least 30 minutes after the last time it came on and never saw it again. The ford dealer says they can't diagnose it unless the light stays on and with the aftermarket wheels it most likely won't be under warranty. I haven't called discount yet but I honesty don't want them touching the truck anymore. I got a chance to check my tire pressures there all about 1-2 psi low. 1-2 psi could vary by gauge because I watched discount set them. The dealer said if it was low pressure the light would come on and stay on and not flash rapidly or say fault. So what would yal do? Oh also after I got the new wheels and drove it home maybe 5 miles. Only one wheel was torqued, I put my oem locking wheel lug nuts on and decided to double check the torque. I gave almost every lug nut a full turn with my snap on torque wrench setting it to the oem spec.
