Our Pearland tire blowout accident attorneys relate that on Sunday just before 6 p.m. on U.S. Highway 59 by South Laurent Street in Victoria, a Ford Expedition suddenly blew a tire.  Houston police officer Ramiro Garcia Jr., his wife, 3 daughters, brother, and a driver were in the Ford Expedition when it blew the right rear tire, rolled twice, and ejected Mr. Garcia and his 13-year-old daughter from the truck.

Reportedly Stephanie Quinones was driving the truck at the time of the serious accident. Ramiro Garcia Jr. received transport to the hospital in critical condition. The six other occupants of the Ford Expedition also received injuries in the tire blowout rollover accident in Victoria, Texas. (Source: Craig Hlavaty, Houston Chronicle, 7/1/13)

If a Tire Defect Causes a Blowout and Injures You, You could be Eligible for a Full Financial Recovery from the Manufacturer of the Defective Tire

The Ford Explorer was at the center of a controversy some years ago due to the defective Firestone tires that had been paired with the vehicles. The Ford Explorer/Firestone tire combination was causing blowouts, rollover accidents, injuries, and deaths. Injured victims and victims’ family members filed lawsuits against Ford and Firestone to hold the companies accountable.

Tires are more complex than you might believe. They consist of layer upon layer of rubber, metal, and polymer in varying formulas depending upon the tires’ intended uses. In such a complex manufacturing process, hidden flaws can arise at any stage of the tires’ manufacture. Our Pearland tire blowout accident attorneys caution that further dangers are posed when tires are matched with inappropriate vehicles or if they are poorly installed on the vehicle.
