Is There a Case?

One of the main questions that must be answered when trying to determine if there is a case is: did the tread belt separate from the tire because of a defective design or manufacture?

Generally, your attorney must consult an expert to test the tire and find out why it blew. Our attorneys have access to industry experts who can provide detailed information about the cause of your accident.

Who Is Liable for the Blowout?

The tire manufacturer could be held liable for your injuries, if you can prove negligence contributed to the blowout. The manufacturer could have been negligent in the design of the tire or when assembling it.

If there was a problem with the design of the tire, your attorney may be able to pursue a claim using the legal theory of strict liability. Your attorney would need to prove three things:

• The tire had a dangerous defect
• The defect caused the tire to fail, resulting in injury or property damage
• The tire was not altered when it was sold

You can discuss this issue with one of our Yuma defective tire lawyers in a free legal consultation.

What Is a Tire Blowout and Why Does it Happen?

A tire blowout occurs when a tire suddenly loses air at rapid speed. This can result in the tire ripping apart, making a vehicle much harder to control.

There are many reasons this could happen, including:

Drivers are responsible for maintaining their tires, including replacing old tires and keeping them at the proper inflation level. If the accident resulted from something the driver should have taken care of, he or she may not have a case.

You should inspect your tires before getting in your vehicle to make sure there are no signs of damage. You should also have your vehicle serviced regularly.

What to do if a Blowout Occurs?

A blowout can put you at increased risk for an accident. Your vehicle may become much more difficult to control, as it pulls toward the blown tire.

However, if it happens to you, there are a few best practices to help reduce your risk of an accident and safely get your vehicle out of the flow of traffic.

Once you come to a stop, turn off the car and flip on the hazard lights to alert other drivers that your vehicle is stopped.

If it is safe to do so, get out and take pictures of the tire and any damage you see on your vehicle. If you can, replace the tire with the spare. You can also request roadside assistance from your insurance company.

If you suffer any injuries, call emergency personnel so your injuries can be treated. Even minor injuries should be treated by a medical professional. While providing treatment, they may discover more serious injuries. You do not want injuries to worsen from lack of treatment. Quick treatment also helps to link your injuries to the accident.
