Tires and Wheels problem
2003 Ford Taurus

When I pulled the car into drive it made a horrible grinding sound so I circled the parking lot and parked it. It was on the front left tire. I turned the car off and got someone to help me figure out what was wrong. They got in the car and put it in reverse as I stood outside and watched and before it could move more than an inch the tire seemed like it was sliced and quickly deflated.
