Please could you provide the following information?
The number of complaints made by motorists to the council after road defects damaged their tyres up to the last five calendar years.
Any complaints raised with Devon County Council about damage to tyres as a result of pothole or similar would be signposted to the claims process and not taken forward as a complaint. We therefore do not hold this information.
The number of claims made by motorists to the council after road defects damaged their tyres up to the last five calendar years.
The total number of claims recorded for vehicle damage due to road defects from 01/04/2019 to 31/03/2024 is 4320. Devon County Council does not specifically record tyre damage separately to other types of vehicle damage.
