Defective auto products, airbag cases

The public depends on airbag systems to protect their lives. However, our auto products attorneys have seen many people seriously injured because their airbags either did not deploy, or deployed when they shouldn't have. It is our job to hold companies responsible every time their airbags, installed in automobiles to protect occupants, end up injuring them instead. A wide range of injuries - including serious injuries to the neck, face, head, shoulders and torso - can be caused by airbag defects and airbag failures.

The most common airbag defects and failures include:

  • Failure to Deploy: When an airbag fails to deploy during an accident, the driver and occupants can suffer serious head, neck and facial injuries.
  • Late Deployment: When an airbag deploys late, not only does it not protect the occupant, it actually causes additional damage because the forces of the accident have usually positioned the occupant too close to the air bag at the time of deployment.
  • Accidental Deployment: An accidental deployment may cause drivers to lose control of their cars, causing serious injuries.

Identifying airbag defects can be difficult. Experienced airbag accident attorneys are adept at working with the right experts, understanding automobile "black box" information, and looking for telltale signs, such as a bent steering wheel, deformed airbag module covers, and similar clues.
