Tread separations, aged tires sold as new, and vehicles that roll in an ordinary avoidance manoeuvre point at design, manufacture or maintenance rather than driver error. Proving that requires the physical evidence.
Insurers move quickly to total and dispose of a wrecked vehicle. Once it is crushed the case is usually gone with it. Call 713-521-0059 before you authorize anything.
The tire itself, including its DOT date code, which shows how old it was when sold. The vehicle’s event data recorder. Roof crush measurements and whether occupant space was maintained. Restraint performance. Service history and any recall or technical service bulletin covering the component.
These are engineering questions and they require a qualified expert, which is one reason to have the vehicle secured before anyone is retained.
Tell the insurer in writing that the vehicle and all its components, including every tire, must be preserved and not repaired, altered, sold or destroyed. Photograph everything before it moves.
A Texas personal injury claim generally must be filed within two years of the injury under Section 16.003 of the Civil Practice and Remedies Code. Call 713-521-0059.
