The Justice Department is investigating Goodyear Tire & Rubber for its handling of a recalled tire that has been linked to eight deaths and dozens of injuries, according to people with knowledge of the matter and documents reviewed by The Wall Street Journal. As part of the probe, federal prosecutors have sought company records and depositions from an Arizona plaintiffs’ attorney produced as part of civil litigation filed against Goodyear years ago, according to a copy of a grand jury subpoena seen by the Journal. The lawyer, David Kurtz, confirmed receipt of the subpoena, which was dated Jan. 4.
