Product Liability & Vehicle Safety

California Tire Defect Attorneys

Tire failures can happen without warning—and when they do, the results are often catastrophic. If a defective, poorly manufactured, or improperly sold tire caused your accident, Frantz Law Group can help you pursue full compensation.

Common Causes of Tire-Related Accidents

Defective tires can fail suddenly and violently, even at normal driving speeds.

Sudden Tire De-Treads

Separation of the tire tread from the casing during operation.

Unexpected Blowouts

Rapid air loss causing immediate loss of vehicle control.

Manufacturing Defects

Improper heating, bonding, or adhesion during production.

Poor Construction or Design

Weak structural integrity or unsafe tire design.

Old, Defective, and Improperly Sold Tires

Tires degrade over time due to oxidation and environmental exposure. Industry standards recognize that tires older than six years may pose serious safety risks—even if they appear unused.

When retailers knowingly sell old tires, or when manufacturers fail to provide adequate warnings about tire aging, they may be held legally responsible for resulting injuries and property damage.

Defective tires do not merely cause inconvenience—they can lead to rollover crashes, multi-vehicle collisions, and fatal accidents.
