2006 Ford Taurus Owners Manual

Tires, Wheels and Loading
Avoid potholes and  objects on the  road
Do not run  over curbs or  hit the tire against  a curb when  parking
If your vehicle  is stuck in  snow, mud, sand, etc.,donot     rapidly
spin the tires;  spinning the tires  can tear the tire  and cause an
explosion. A tire  can explode in  as little as three  to five seconds.
Never spin the  tires in excess  of the 35 mph  (55 km/h) point
indicated on the  speedometer.
Highwayhazards
No matter how  carefully you drive  there’s always the possibility  that you
may eventually have  a flat tire  on the highway. Drive  slowly to the
closest safe area  out of traffic.  This may further damage  the flat tire,  but
your safety is  more important.
If you feel  a sudden vibration  or ride disturbance while  driving, or you
suspect your tire  or vehicle has  been damaged, immediately reduce  your
speed. Drive with  caution until you  can safely pull off  the road. Stop  and
inspect the tires  for damage. If  a tire is under-inflated  or damaged,
deflate it, remove  wheel and replace  it with your spare  tire and wheel.  If
you cannot detect  a cause, have  the vehicle towed to  the nearest repair
facility or tire  dealer to have  the vehicle inspected.
Tire and wheel alignment
A bad jolt  from hitting a  curb or pothole can  cause the front  end of your
vehicle to become  misaligned or cause  damage to your tires.  If your
vehicle seems to  pull to one  side when you’re driving,  the wheels may  be
out of alignment.  Have a qualified  technician at a Ford  or Lincoln
Mercury dealer check  the wheel alignment  periodically.
Wheel misalignment in  the front or  the rear can cause  uneven and rapid
treadwear of your  tires and should  be corrected by a  qualified technician
at a Ford  or Lincoln Mercury  dealer. Front wheel drive  (FWD) vehicles
and those with  an independent rear  suspension (if equipped) may
require alignment of  all four wheels.
The tires should  also be balanced  periodically. An unbalanced tire  and
wheel assembly may  result in irregular  tire wear.
Tire rotation
Rotating your tires  at the recommended  interval (as indicated in  the
scheduledmaintenanceinformation    that comes with  your vehicle) will
