Aging tires may be to blame in a Missouri rollover accident
2013-03-09
How old are your tires? Many do not readily know the answer to that question. Even a set of tires bought to replace aging threadbare tires could be older than assumed.
A recent news investigation found that the key to uncovering tire age is looking for a Department of Transportation four-digit code stamped on every tire that lists the week and year of manufacture. For example, a tire with the code 1503 was made the 15th week of 2003 and is about 10 years old.
Tires that are older than 6 years can be dangerous according to safety experts. Driving on old tires can greatly ...
