Waco Defective Airbag Lawyer

Even with recent improvements in airbag technologies, these devices that are intended to provide an increased level of safety can still result in serious injury. Airbags that do not deploy as designed can put a driver or passenger at risk for severe injury in the event of an accident. Airbags should provide a driver with a heightened sense of security, not be a cause for further concern. But news of airbag defects can severely limit a consumer’s sense of comfort, and with good reason.

If a defective airbag failed to protect you in an accident or caused you to suffer unnecessary harm, you may be eligible to seek compensation because of this faulty product.

Proper Use of Airbags

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has recognized a need for improved airbag safety in light of widespread recalls because of faulty airbags. Major car manufacturers including Honda have issued these recalls because of potentially deadly airbag defects. In response to these recalls, the NHTSA requires warning stickers to be included on vehicles that provide the following airbag safety information:

  • Always use child restraints and seat belts
  • Rear-facing child seats should never be put in the front seat
  • The back seat is always safer for children
  • Airbags can seriously injure or even be fatal for children

However, even if airbags are used properly, defective airbags can have serious safety consequences for children and adults.
