Are Auto Defects Responsible for Your Injury or Loss?

You have probably heard some of the horror stories about auto defects: Improperly positioned gas tanks that explode on impact, unsafe SUVs that are prone to rollover and roof crush accidents, air bags that cause injury or death to children and other small passengers, faulty seat belts and seat backs, defective tires, dangerous auto glass ... the list goes on and on.

The truth is that cars and trucks are probably safer now than ever before. While that does not mean that auto defects no longer exist, it does mean that it may be very difficult to prove that an accident or injury was caused by defective car design or a faulty auto part.

At the Houston law firm of Adame & Associates, our attorney does not shy away from cases that may involve auto defects. We will investigate the causes of your accident and, if necessary, hire experts who know the particular make and model of your vehicle and the known or potential defects that may have played a part in your accident and injury. Contact our offices today to learn more in a free consultation.

Air Bag Injuries

You would think that the greatest risk to passengers in a car accident would be if a defective air bag system fails to deploy. Surprisingly, we see a much larger number of cases in which an air bag deployed properly in a low-speed collision resulting in a variety of injuries, ranging from facial trauma and neck injury to chemical burns to the eyes.

If you suffered a serious injury from air bag deployment, it may not be necessary to prove that the system was faulty. You can still seek compensation for your injury through an insurance claim or personal injury suit against a negligent driver who caused your accident.
