Top Pennsylvania Personal Injury Law Firm Injuries Caused by Tires

Tire failure causes over 11,000 car accidents and 200 deaths each year in the United States 1.

Every driver knows how important tires are to their car, but a defective tire is something that can be placed on a vehicle and cause catastrophic damage at any moment, no matter how skilled or aware the driver is.

Accidents caused by tire failure can be devastating. Ensuring victims and their families receive fair compensation requires extensive knowledge of how tires are engineered and the entire manufacturing process.

Explosions, Tread Separation, Blowouts

What are some common tire defect claims?

While they may seem simple on the outside, tires are expertly crafted pieces of equipment with billions of dollars of research behind them. More than just rubber, tires come in all shapes and sizes to suit a variety of needs.

No matter how much research and development is put into a tire, it can still be manufactured with defects that could potentially cause catastrophic damage or even death.

Common tire defect claims include:

  • Tire explosions
  • Tread separations
  • Belt separations
  • Tire failure
  • Tire bead failures
  • Tire blowouts
  • Tire underinflation
  • Multi-piece wheels explosions

Manufacturer, Mechanics, Retailers

Who is liable if an accident is caused by tire failure?

Many parties are involved before a tire makes it a consumer’s car. From the manufacturer to the retailer and even the mechanic that installs the tire – a failure or defect can present itself at any point during a tire’s life.

Parties liable in a defective tire or tire failure claim may include, but are not limited to:

  • The tire manufacturer
  • Retailers
  • Mechanics and tire service providers

Finding the liable parties takes experience and knowledge. Make sure you choose a lawyer that has a proven track record in producing results in product liability lawsuits if you or someone you care about was injured by a defective product like a tire.
