Airbag Injuries in West Palm Beach

Airbags are one of the most effective vehicle safety devices in modern history, helping to reduce the severity of injuries associated with motor vehicle accidents. This is why they have been a required safety feature on cars sold in the United States since 1998. However, the airbag itself has been known to cause injury because of defects and deployment problems. A prime example of this involves the recent Takata airbag recall, which has been blamed for 27 deaths and as many as 400 injuries. Even when they deploy correctly, an airbag can cause serious injury to both drivers and passengers.

If you suffered airbag injuries in West Palm Beach, you might be eligible for compensation either through a product liability claim or a personal injury claim against whoever is responsible for the accident that caused your injuries. An attorney from Morgan & Morgan can review your case and determine what parties may be held liable.
