When a Safety Feature Turns Into a Serious Threat
An airbag is meant to protect you in a crash, not cause additional harm. When an airbag deploys improperly or contains a defect, it can lead to severe injuries such as facial trauma, burns, broken bones, or even life-threatening complications.
In Key West, drivers and passengers have been injured by airbags that failed in moments when they were needed most.
Florida law allows people injured by defective airbags to pursue compensation through product liability claims, but these cases are often complex and aggressively defended. Manufacturers and automakers may dispute responsibility, question whether recalls were addressed, or argue misuse of the vehicle. Strict deadlines and technical evidence requirements make it difficult to hold the right parties accountable without experienced legal guidance.

Why Airbags Can Fail to Deploy
Airbags should inflate when a car accident takes place. The force of the impact of colliding with another car triggers a sensor that will signal the airbags to deploy. Cars should include airbags inside doors, panels, and dashboards. When all airbags deploy effectively, they should cushion the driver or passenger's upper body. Airbag cushions prevent the bodies of drivers and passengers from flying into the dashboard or car doors and becoming more severely injured.
There are several reasons why an airbag fails to deploy.
- Defective key-rotation ignition switches
- An airbag deploys too slowly
- An airbag deploys, and an accident does not occur, causing injuries
- An airbag deploys with too much force
- An airbag deploys with too little force
- An airbag fails to deploy in a motor vehicle accident
- A vehicle lacks side airbags or front airbags
It can be challenging for plaintiffs to prove that an airbag malfunction caused their injuries or made their injuries worse. Morgan & Morgan has over 35 years of experience fighting for the legal rights of their clients. We have helped over 500,000 families recover compensation for their damages.
