Design Defects and Auto Accident Lawyers
If you or a loved one have been involved in an accident due to a vehicle design defect, please contact the accident lawyers at Keith Barton & Associates to learn more about your legal rights.
Each year approximately 42,000 lives our lost on our Nation's highways. Many more are injured and the costs associated with these accidents, both emotionally and economically, are staggering. While mechanical failures and design defects only account for about 5 percent of all car accidents, design or manufacturing errors can contribute to the magnitude and severity of injuries sustained in a car crash.
Types of Design Defects
Car manufacturers are required by law to design and engineer vehicles that adhere to minimum safety standards. Although recent technological advances have improved the safety of vehicles, manufacturing and design defects still occur. The most common cited types of equipment failure and design defects include:
- Loss of brakes
- Tire blowouts or tread separation
- Steering or suspension failure
- Defective seat belts and airbags
- SUV rollovers
