Motor Vehicle Defects: Even if you are allegedly found to be at fault for the accident, you may nonetheless have a claim against the maker of the automobile or the maker of an automobile part.
-
Tires: It is tire-maker's duty to ensure that the tires they are providing the public are strong and durable enough to withstand extreme conditions. If your tire appeared to disintegrate or fail in some way, then it could have been a cause of the accident.
-
Airbags & Seatbelts: These products are specifically meant to provide added protection for us on the dangerous roads. However in some case they themselves are responsible for causing the injuries suffered in an accident; in other cases they simply fail to function at all.
-
Brakes & Pedals: Clearly we need to be able to effectively start and stop our cars. If your car's brake systems failed you in an accident, then the blame may very well rest with the car-maker, not you.
If you believe that any of the vehicles involved in your accident were in any way defective or contributed to the accident, then you should immediately try to ensure that the involved parties and insurance companies do not dispose of the parts or vehicles so that they may be properly inspected by experts.
