Are certain tire brands more prone to failure than others?

Yes, certain tire brands are more prone to failure than others. Tire failure is a serious safety concern, and Oregon has laws in place to protect drivers from this danger. Some tire brands are known to have higher rates of failure than other brands, based on customer reviews, road tests, and analysis. The Oregon Tire Failure Law requires tire manufacturers to replace tires that have experienced a rapid, unexpected (non-gradual) loss of air pressure due to manufacturer defects. This is why it is important for drivers to purchase reliable tires from reputable brands. It is also important to purchase properly sized tires and to inspect tires regularly for signs of wear and tear. Worn or aged tires are more likely to have defects that could lead to a tire blow-out, puncture, or other failure. Further, drivers should check the Air Pressure Maintenance System (TPMS) for any warning signs that the tires are malfunctioning. Finally, drivers should be aware that certain tire components can cause tires to fail even with proper maintenance and safety protocols. For example, metal-belted radial tires may fail due to belt separation caused by overheating. This type of failure is less common with other types of tires. In summary, certain tire brands and components may be more prone to failure than others. Purchasing reliable, properly sized tires and regularly inspecting them can help reduce the risk of tire blow-outs and other failures.
