	Firestone Tire Recall--Article
		Firestone recalled 6.5 million ATX, ATX II and Wilderness AT tires on Aug. 9 after Ford analyzed the tire maker's data on crash claims and found a pattern of property damage and injury claims dating back at least to 1997.
		Firestone officials said then and have said repeatedly since then that they missed the trend of crash claims because they were focusing on warranty data that did not show a problem.
		Firestone and Ford, and possibly their executives could still face prosecution by state or local authorities, however, if it is proved that they knowingly sold products with deadly defects.

		Just as Byrd and Kelly documented in Arkansas and Mississippi, Kaster learned that Firestone workers in Decatur allegedly repaired tires by poking holes in them with an awl, that contamination of tires during manufacture was a common occurrence and that employees sometimes let bad tires slide through quality control checks, he said.
