Defective Tire Lawyer, Defective Tire Accident Attorney

Perhaps the most important part of a car, besides the engine, is its tires -- where the rubber meets the road. Such tires must be in optimum condition to survive a daily pounding and transport occupants safely. But tires can fail in this due to manufacturer defects, or even past-due dates in sales by retailers. A tire recall may target some defective tires, but tires which aren't returned can still cause accidents, and these may merit a defective tire lawyer.

A frequent problem in tires today is tread separation. This involves the tread separating from the tire carcass or inner plies, which often results in a dangerous blowout. A blowout can be especially dangerous at freeway speeds, but at any time can lead to a car accident. That's because blowouts can cause drivers to lose control over a vehicle, which can veer into other vehicles or even roll over, which lead to fatal roof crush accidents.

If you or a loved one has suffered in an accident caused by a defective tire, be sure to save the tire as evidence. It's also valuable to photograph the tire and its tread as soon as possible, noting the areas where its tread separated or it otherwise failed. A properly designed tire should not reveal a bare-wife surface. If the tread has separated, that can be attributable to poor adhesion or bonding of tire elements by the manufacturer.

Manufacturer defects demand a defective tire lawyer

Other defective tire factors can be lack of a nylon overlay, which is like a safety belt between the steel belts and the tire's tread. Though such a nylon overlay has a minimal cost -- perhaps $1 per tire -- manufacturers have been slow to adopt it and generally add such a feature only to higher-priced tires known as "high performances" tires. A defective tire lawyer can analyze the results to determine if this omission caused a defective tire accident.

Some vehicles also may be sold with tires whose size doesn't fit the vehicle. If tires are too large for a vehicle, that vehicle can tip or roll over. Larger and wider tires also create more frictional side forces in a sideways slide, and can raise the height of a vehicle, thus raising its center of gravity and making it more likely to tip or roll over.

Tires also may be defective due to over- or under-inflating when installed on new cars, or debeading when tires separate off their rim, or dangerous application of multi-piece rims, which can cause explosions that can be fatal to persons mounting a tire on a vehicle.

A defective tire lawyer presents a road to recovery

If such elements have converged to cause a defective tire accident due to manufacturer, retailer or installer negligence, you should notify a defective tire lawyer. A defective tire accident attorney or lawyer can identify the source of the tire defect and determine if negligence exists and from where it came. Then those who are responsible for your defective tire accident can be challenged in the legal realm to provide full and fair financial compensation for your loss.
