Airbag Injuries in Louisville
While there is no denying the fact that airbags have saved thousands of lives in the last three decades, defective airbags have been known to take lives. In fact, according to the National Highway Traffic and Safety Administration, the recently recalled Takata airbag has caused at least 27 deaths and injured as many as 400 people.
However, airbag recalls are just part of the story. Across the country, airbags are deployed in countless accidents. Though they operate exactly as they were supposed to, preventing catastrophic injury and even death, they can cause a range of serious injuries.
A Kentucky accident attorney from the Morgan & Morgan team can help you secure compensation owed to you for injuries sustained in a car accident with airbag injuries.

Common Airbag Injuries
Regardless of whether your vehicle’s airbag deployed properly due to an accident or it went off unexpectedly due to a defect, the injuries can be quite serious.
Airbag injuries can include:
- Burns and abrasions: As the fabric of your vehicle’s airbag makes contact with the skin on your face, arms, hands, and chest, it can result in burns and abrasions.
- Eye injuries: The chemicals used to inflate the airbag can cause eye injuries, and the force of the deployment can result in broken facial bones around the eye socket.
- Wrist injuries: Wrist fractures are common in car accidents where an airbag is deployed, as the force of the airbag can cause the bones in your hand to break.
- Internal injuries or bleeding: The sudden impact of an airbag on the body can potentially damage internal organs, including the liver, spleen, lungs, and heart, and cause internal bleeding.
- Traumatic brain injuries: This forceful impact on the head and neck may cause contusions, lacerations, and fractures in the skull, damaging the brain.
