Takata Airbag Injuries in Phoenix

No words can explain how horrific Takata airbag injuries are. Perhaps the most shocking story that portrays the horrendous nature of these injuries is the 2013 incident involving a driver in California who the police thought had been shot in the face when they first arrived at the scene.

A year later, another driver suffered severe head injuries in a minor car accident in Orlando, FL. When police officers responded to the scene, they thought she had been shot or stabbed multiple times in the head. However, investigators later discovered that her injuries stemmed from the effects of a faulty airbag explosion, which sent shrapnel and other debris flying directly into her face, leaving gaping wounds.

The woman was able to receive medical treatment for three days but unfortunately succumbed to her injuries. Does this accident remind you of anything you or a loved one suffered? If so, you may be entitled to some form of compensation.

This is because such a case falls under the legal umbrella of product liability, where the manufacturer has a legal duty to ensure their products are safe for human use.
