ORANGE PARK AIRBAG INJURY LAWYERS

Defective airbags can be incredibly dangerous. In fact, drivers are much safer without airbags than having defective ones.

That’s because when these defective airbags deploy improperly, they can send sharp metal fragments into the car, causing life-changing injuries to drivers and passengers. In some cases, airbags fail to inflate at all during an accident, leaving occupants unprotected. These defects can lead to severe injuries such as deep cuts, burns, traumatic brain injuries, and even death.

If you’ve been injured by a defective airbag, you may be entitled to recover various damages to cover the costs associated with your injuries and also hold the responsible parties accountable. Examples of damages in such a case include:

• Medical expenses
• Pain and suffering
• Lost wages
• Loss of earning capacity
• Rehabilitation costs
• Emotional distress
• Property damage
• Funeral and burial expenses (wrongful death)
• Loss of companionship (wrongful death)
• Punitive damages

You can still seek compensation. Bankruptcy does not absolve the company of its responsibilities to victims. In cases like these, funds are often set aside specifically to compensate those affected by defective products. For example, the Takata Airbag Tort Compensation Trust Fund was established by the US District Court for Michigan to provide compensation to defective airbag injury victims. The bottom line is that legal avenues remain open to pursue your claims. You just need a good attorney in your corner.
