According to the National Highway Traffic and Safety Administration, last summer, more than 380,000 defective tires were recalled from the market. What is more troubling than this number is the fact that experts agree that less than 20% of the public was aware of the recalls involved. Accordingly, 80% of the defective tires are still being used and are probably on the roads today. In short, recall notices are rarely received and thus the entire public remains at risk as a result of the continued use of recalled tires. To make sure that your tires are safe, you can log onto the NHTSA website and click on Safercar.gov to check on the recall list.
\nIn the event of an incident involving a defective tire which separates, explodes or otherwise causes a car collision, one should investigate the possibility of whether the tire was recalled and\/or whether the manufacturer of the tire properly recalled the tire and\/or warned the motoring public of the dangers associated with its use. Dangerous tires threaten all members of the motoring public and thus increasing diligence is needed to protect against these defective products.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
