摘要: Each year, about 33,000 tire-related passenger vehicle crashes occur, resulting in about 19,000 injuries. In 2013, a total of 539 people died in tire-related passenger vehicle crashes. This special investigation report summarizes the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) investigations into four such crashes and discusses the safety issues uncovered. This report also considers statements made by experts during the December 9 and 10, 2014, Passenger Vehicle Tire Safety Symposium held by the NTSB in Washington, DC. Among the issues this report addresses are problems with the tire registration and safety recall system, failure to establish the current level of crash risk posed by tire aging and the lack of consumer guidance on this issue, poor tire maintenance practices by consumers, and barriers to technological innovation that could prevent or mitigate tire-related crashes. Safety recommendations to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, AAA, the Rubber Manufacturers Association, and the major tire manufacturers are included.
