Well, apparently a lot of the tires that had been recalled were produced during a period of strikes that had been happening at the time. For what I am not certain, though I believe it has had something to do with the partnership between Firestone and Ford, a 100 year partnership was dissolved as a result of the strike, firestone no longer accepting contracts from Ford from what I have seen. So I am guessing that with people finally doing their jobs like they were supposed to be doing and the work getting done properly without constant stops and walk-outs. So, that aside, changes that were done have likely been mostly elective.
What else can I help you with?

I have a 1995 Ford Explorer XLT - originally the recommended inflation pressure was 26 PSI - I received a revised sticker recommending 30 PSI ( cold ) for recommended Firestone tires . I had my Firestone ATX tires replaced for free under the recall with Michelin LTX all terrain tires ( P235/75R15 ) and I have been running 29 or 30 PSI in the Michelins for over 7 years now and if anything it's the inside and outside edges that are wearing quicker than the center of the tread so that works for me

Has the quality of the Ford Explorer improved much since the massave recalls that took place years ago?
Well, the main problem was that they had been outfitted with firestone tires, tires that were mostly being produced during a time in which there had been a seris of strikes within the company. So, the tires were of a poor quality, threads would be less then up to parr and therefore, the car would suffer rollover. However, it should be noted that as a result of the whole mess with this, Ford and Firestone dissolved a 100 year partnership, you could say, as a result of the problems involved. So, while the cars themselves might not have changed so much, they certainly have gotten ride of the tires that seemed to be the main problem behind the recall.
