How do I prove that a tire manufacturer is responsible for a tire failure?

In North Dakota, proving that a tire manufacturer is responsible for a tire failure is a complex process. Generally, the injured party must show that the tire was defectively designed, manufactured, or marketed, and that the manufacturer was negligent in one or more of these three areas. To prove that the tire was defectively designed, the injured party must provide evidence that the design of the tire was the cause of the failure, rather than poor maintenance or use. The injured party must show that the defect arose out of the design process, rather than manufacturing or marketing. To prove that the tire was defectively manufactured, the injured party must demonstrate that the failure was caused by a flaw in the actual making of the tire, rather than by design or marketing. The injured party must show that the manufacturer failed to meet standards of quality, or that something was wrong with the way the tire was made. To prove that the tire was defectively marketed, the injured party must show that the manufacturer failed to provide adequate warnings about potential risks associated with the tire’s use. The injured party must prove that the manufacturer failed to provide warnings, or that the warnings were inadequate. Finally, the injured party must show that the manufacturer was negligent, meaning that the manufacturer failed to provide a safe product or failed to warn of risk in a reasonable manner. This is often the most difficult element to prove in a tire failure lawsuit and requires the help of experienced attorneys.
