If a dealer put the wrong size/type of tire on my truck and I have an accident due to this, would I have legal recourse?
I purchased a used 2013 Chevrolet 2500 HD pickup. As part of the deal, they agreed to replace two fairly worn tires. When I came to pick up the truck, they had replaced all four with P255/70R17 tires.
P-metric ("passenger" metric)
The spare is a LT245/75R17
LT-metric ("light truck" metric)
I have call several tire shops and they have said that the P tire is not rated for that heavy a truck. It needs to be a D or E rated tire. The tires on the truck have no rating.
