A Nashville Automobile Accident Attorney Takes a Look At Auto Product Liability Issues
Engineering Defects Kill
As a Tennessee automobile accident attorney I find interesting the choices buyers make about the make and model of vehicle they buy. The process by which most Tennesseans buy a new car is an individual decision that usually takes into account many different factors. The main focus is on style, color, lifestyle, fuel economy and what they think the type of car says about them. Very few buyers think about automobile safety and the various and sundry built in engineering defects that the different cars have.
Many of these defects are responsible for highway collisions, injuries and death. The most recent defect to draw major attention is with several models of Toyotas. It appears that the design of the accelerator linkage was faulty and would cause high acceleration at the most inopportune times. The list is lengthy with some brands experiencing more problems than others.
It is important to look into the various factors leading up to a car accident in order to determine cause and liability. If an auto product defect causes a fatal accident, then the auto manufacturer could be held liable. This is the time when the victim or victim’s family needs the guidance of an experienced Tennessee automobile accident lawyer. Having a lawyer that certified as a civil trial specialist, which most lawyers are not, is a critical element in finding out the cause and prosecuting the case on behalf of the family.
I am an experienced Nashville automobile accident attorney and a certified Tennessee civil trial specialist. I handle complex civil cases all over the United States. In fact, I am regularly employed by law firms all over the country to consult with them about complex litigation on behalf of injured parties. I can put that experience and training to work on behalf of your family.
The next time you buy a new or used car I suggest that you go to the website of an organization like http://autosafety.org/ and see what they have to say about known defects that the dealers don’t tell you about.
