It is almost impossible for the American consumer to know if they have been sold a defective tire or bought a car with defective tires. The public depends on the integrity of tire manufacturers and retailers to provide well-made, safe tires for their families to ride on. However, defective tires are responsible for thousands of accidents, injuries and fatalities nationwide. Although millions of tires have been recalled, untold millions of defective tires are still being used throughout the country.

A tire failure is one of the most frightening things that can happen to a driver at highway speeds. Tire tread separation at highway speeds often causes the vehicle to rollover. Rollover crashes normally crush the occupants of the vehicle causing devastating injuries and deaths.

In the recent past, tire manufacturers have been found legally responsible for losses from automobile accidents caused by defective tires. Millions of dollars in compensation have been paid to victims and their families for injuries and deaths sustained in accidents caused by defective tires.
