Even Proper Tire Maintenance Can't Prevent Defective Tires
Checking your tire pressure, filling your tires with air, rotating your tires, and aligning and balancing them regularly are all important—but these steps do not guarantee your safety if the tires themselves are defective.
Many auto and tire manufacturers are reluctant to admit that tire de-treading, delamination, and blowouts occur frequently. When your tire blows out, you and your loved ones are in serious danger.
If you’ve been in a car accident caused by tire failure or malfunction, contact Victory Law Group immediately at (213) 422-5061. We’re here to fight for you and help you pursue maximum compensation for your injuries and losses.

Tire Manufacturers Prioritize Profits Over Safety
To increase profits, many tire manufacturers claim their tires can last up to 10 years. However, safety experts recommend replacing tires every 6 years to prevent tire failure and malfunction.
Companies should not prioritize profit over consumer safety. When tire manufacturers are negligent—by producing defective tires or providing misleading information about their products—they put the lives of their consumers at risk.
While some car accidents caused by tire malfunctions are minor, tire failures can also cause catastrophic or even fatal injuries—especially when they occur at high speeds.
When a tire fails while driving on the highway or freeway, the driver can lose control of the vehicle, resulting in:
- Rollovers
- High-speed collisions
- Multi-vehicle accidents
- Serious injuries or death
Tire manufacturers can be held liable when they:
- Fail to produce durable, safe tires
- Provide dishonest or misleading information about tire performance and lifespan
- Fail to warn consumers about known defects or risks
- Sell tires that do not meet safety standards
If you’ve been injured in an accident caused by a tire failure, you may have a product liability claim against the tire manufacturer.

Common Causes of Tire Malfunctions
Tire malfunctions can be caused by several types of defects, including:
- Poor craftsmanship
- Defective manufacturing processes
- Faulty or unsafe tire design
- Tread separation
- Tire shredding or blowouts
- De-treading (loss of the tire tread)
- Adhesion failures between tire components
Although tire performance regulations are strict, tire malfunctions occur frequently. Over the past several years, major tire manufacturers including Firestone, Bridgestone, Goodyear, Michelin, and others have issued tire recalls.
Unfortunately, many of these recalls came only after serious injuries and fatalities had already occurred. By the time defective tires are recalled, countless consumers have already been put at risk—and some have already been harmed.
If you’ve been injured in an accident caused by a tire malfunction, you may have a product liability claim against the tire manufacturer—even if the tire has since been recalled.

Common Questions About Personal Injury Cases in California
If you’ve been injured, you probably have questions about how the legal process works, what it costs, and how long you have to take action. Here are straightforward answers to the questions we hear most often from injured Californians.
How much does it cost to hire a personal injury lawyer?
Nothing upfront. We work on a contingency fee basis, which means we only get paid if we recover compensation for you. You pay no attorney fees unless we win your case.
How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in California?
In most cases, you have two years from the date of your injury to file a claim. However, some cases have shorter deadlines, especially claims involving government entities. It’s important to speak with an attorney as soon as possible to protect your rights.
How is the value of my case determined?
Every case is different. The value depends on factors like the severity of your injuries, your medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and how the injury has affected your daily life. We review all of these factors during your free consultation.
What if I was partially at fault for the accident?
California follows a “comparative negligence” rule, which means you can still recover compensation even if you were partly responsible. Your settlement may be reduced by your percentage of fault, but you’re not automatically disqualified.
How long does a personal injury case take?
It depends. Some cases settle in a few months, while others, especially those involving serious injuries or disputes over fault, can take longer. We move as quickly as possible while making sure you receive fair compensation.
Do I have to go to court?
Most personal injury cases settle out of court. However, we prepare every case for trial to strengthen your negotiating position and ensure you’re not pressured into accepting less than you deserve.
