It's gonna be hard to explain. I was just sitting watching the news on ABC when they aired a story about some lawsuit against Ford in Florida. A woman was riding as a passanger in an Explorer that rolled due to tire thread separation. Now she was suing Ford for $100 mil because she's paralyzed from the accident. She won the lawsuit but nobody wanted to say how much money was awarded. On top of that she was awarded an official apology from Ford. That was something new. They just showed the clip from that apology and then pictures showing the truck and the faulty tire. I know it was a terrible experiance. Too bad she was left parylized. But,.,.,.,. Where am I getting? Here's my question:
how do you roll a car or a truck after tire thread separates but tire keeps air? I can understand a blowout but the tire never lost air.
I know many people lost lives because of this, many that had injuries. Did anybody hear about any more lawsuits? Anybody on the list?
I'm not trying to argue here about this whole tire separation thing. I know it is very painfull to loose someone in an accident. My heart goes out to all that lost someone due to faulty tires. My question remains though.
