Not every serious car accident is caused by driver error. In some cases, the design or manufacturing of the vehicle itself contributes to the severity of a crash or causes injuries that could have been prevented. Defective airbags, roof crush failures, seat belt defects, unstable vehicle designs, and other manufacturing issues can all become the basis of a product liability claim against an automobile manufacturer.
We represented an injured passenger who suffered serious injuries while riding in a defectively designed and manufactured vehicle. After pursuing claims against a major automobile manufacturer, we secured a $3,000,000 settlement on our client’s behalf.
Product liability claims involving motor vehicles often require extensive investigation, engineering analysis, and expert testimony to prove that a defect contributed to the injuries. These cases are very different from a standard automobile accident claim and frequently involve large manufacturers with significant legal resources.
