THE FACTS<\/h3>\n

In January 2024, the European Commission conducted unannounced inspections in the tire industry in several member states.<\/p>\n

A press release from the EU Commission stated: „The Commission has concerns that the companies visited may have violated EU antitrust rules prohibiting cartels and anti-competitive practices (Article 101 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union). The Commission has grounds to suspect that the companies concerned may also have coordinated their prices through public statements<\/em>.“<\/p>\n

CURRENT LEGAL SITUATION<\/h3>\n

In January 2024, the EU regulatory authority conducted unannounced searches at tire manufacturers. In June 2024, the EU Commission conducted further searches at a consulting firm in connection with a possible tire cartel.<\/p>\n

Press release from the EU Commission on the investigations in June 2024<\/a><\/p>\n

As experience with similar cases (e.g., the truck cartel) shows, not only are fines imposed on the manufacturers, but every customer is also entitled to claim compensation for the excess amounts paid. With our help, you can now claim this compensation without any great effort or risk!<\/p>\n

Numerous buyers will be seeking correspondingly high claims for damages. Extensive investigations into long-standing cartels have concluded that the average damage amounts to 15% of the purchase price. However, compensation payments for customers are best enforced in bundled lawsuits by competent lawyers.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

EXAMPLE OF DAMAGES \u2013 ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA<\/h3>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/div><\/div>

According to the current state of the investigation, it is expected that
\ncompensation of 10-15% of the purchase price plus interest.<\/strong>
\nThat may not sound like much at first, but with a large number of vehicles, high mileage, and numerous tire changes<\/strong>,
\nconsiderable sums can accumulate between 2016 and 2025.<\/p>\n

Example:
\n10 trucks + trailers = 120 tires at \u20ac500 each = \u20ac60,000 purchase price<\/p>\n

15% compensation:<\/strong>
\n\u20ac9,000 plus interest for one set of tires\/per change<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

LATEST NEWS ON THE LEGAL SITUATION<\/strong><\/h4>\n

\u2023 In this case, the injured party can choose the defendant. Each individual party involved is liable for the entire amount of damages, including purchases from another manufacturer. This means that you can also go to court in a country that offers more advantages in terms of calculating damages.
\n\u2023 In the freight forwarding, car rental, and fleet operator sectors, the amounts of damages will be substantial. Extensive investigations into long-standing cartels have concluded that the average damage amounts to 15% of the purchase price.
\n\u2023 Companies are advised to assert these potential claims and to opt for litigation financing with competent attorneys.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO KNOW MORE\u2026<\/strong><\/h4>\n

\u2023How long would proceedings take?
\nThe European Commission could expect to impose fines on tire manufacturers in 2026. As many judgments on claims for damages due to antitrust violations have been handed down in recent years, it can be assumed that a possible conviction of the companies involved will occur more quickly. Many questions, such as the amount of damages, have already been clarified, which strengthens the position of the injured parties.
\n\u2023 According to recent press reports, tire manufacturers are also the focus of investigations by the Turkish competition authority. The authority has launched investigations into all 17 companies involved in the tire cartel in Turkey.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
