Dallas Auto Products Liability Lawyers
Car Defect Lawyers Handling Cases Nationally
The law requires that cars, trucks and SUVs be designed to meet certain specifications to protect occupants in a crash, but safety systems may prove inadequate. Air bags may fail to deploy, handling or stability problems may cause a high clearance vehicle to roll over, or roof supports are inadequately designed to protect the occupants in a crash. These situations may all be the result of a defect in the vehicle.
Our lawyers handle cases involving vehicle defect claims ranging from cars, trucks and SUVs to buses and heavy equipment all over the country. We have experience with all types of defect claims including crashworthiness, handling and stability, safety systems defects dealing with restraints, air bags, and side curtain airbags, tire defects, glass defects, and structural defects.
