OHIO LAWYER FOR DEFECTIVE CAR TIRES

Was Your Car Crash Caused by a Faulty Tire?

Tires are a vital part of any vehicle. They’re also one of the few vehicle components that can cause immediate, violent crashes simply due to their failure. Blown out tires can cause drivers to lose control of their vehicles, collide with other cars or stationary objects or roll over.

These types of accidents can cause all types of catastrophic injuries, including traumatic brain injuries, spine injuries and other potentially permanent disabilities.



Tire manufacturers have a duty to manufacture and sell safe tires to Ohio car, truck and SUV owners. When they fail to do so, and drivers, passengers or pedestrians are hurt as a result, it’s important that those companies are made to pay for the damages they caused.

Tire Blowouts Aren’t Always Caused by Normal Wear and Tear

Tire blowouts can be incredibly dangerous when they occur at high speeds in heavy traffic. In best case circumstances, they only cause damage to your vehicle. In many cases, they lead to collisions with other vehicles and objects.

Some common reasons for blowouts other than tire wear include:

• Improper distance between treads
• Compromised or weakened tire belts
• Manufacturing faults in the rims of vehicles
• Mistakes made by tire repair professionals

Manufacturers aren’t the only potential companies at fault for tire-related accidents. Tire shops that perform puncture repairs or retreads may make mistakes that accelerate tire failure or directly lead to accidents and car crash injuries. Getting to the bottom of what happened after a car crash caused by tire problems requires fast, accurate investigation.
