Northern California Auto Product Liability Attorneys

Practice Area: Auto Product Liability

Most of the automobiles on bay area highways are properly constructed and safely designed. Auto safety is a large concern when individuals are shopping for cars, especially when the cars we buy will be transporting our children and loved ones. When vehicles are not designed to specifications, contain a design defect, or if the installed components were inadequate, car accidents can and do occur. These car accidents are not caused by either of the drivers, instead the vehicle itself was flawed and the defect caused the accident. Our Northern California Auto Product Liability attorneys can help determine if a car defect was the cause of your crash, and hold the defective part manufacturer, car dealer, or vehicle manufacturer accountable for your damages.

California auto product liability does not start and end with the car manufacturer. The manufacturer of defective component parts such as tires, belts, hoses etc and the dealer where the car was purchased can also be held liable for crashes caused by car defects. Examples of the types of car defects which can result in auto accidents are:

• fuel-fed fires after crashes
• seatback failures
• flawed or missing brake shift devices
• seat belt and airbag malfunction
• steering and drive shaft failures
• defective tires
• defective door latches which result in car ejection
• defective auto glass which result in car ejection
• defective child car seats
