Chinese Defects Coming Home To Roost About Tire Ratings
September 3, 2007
The legal site “Lawyers and Settlements” is now reporting about defective car tires being added to the parade of products being added to the seemingly endless stream of product quality concerns coming out of China. They report:
“As the parade of tainted products continues to roll past the eyes of angry customers and wary politicians, one thing is becoming increasingly clear: consumers no longer trust any product that comes out of China, including defective tires.”
The article brings out the issues regarding car tire safety and sites government sources about car tire ratings and quality. Though it does not make any clear connection to specific incidents as of late regarding bad tires coming out of China. Though it does go into good detail on the tire recall process and how the NTHSA is responsible for setting tire ratings and promoting safety, but rather it is each manufacturer that are responsible for recalls.
