Wrongful Death lawsuit Filed Against Toyota Over Defective Airbag
The family of a Houston area teenager has recently filed a Wrongful Death lawsuit against Toyota over claims of defective side impact airbags. The wrongful death lawsuit came in the wake of a serious car accident where another driver in a pick-up truck ran a stop sign and crashed into the driver side of the Toyota Prius driven, by the now deceased, teenager. The Toyota Prius, which was equipped with side impact airbags, failed to deploy, according to the family.
What will support the family in their wrongful death lawsuit is the fact that Toyota had previously issued a voluntary recall on some of its vehicles, thereby alerting consumers that the airbags may not work in the event of a collision.
If you or a loved one has been injured or killed because an airbag did not deploy when you were in a high impact accident, I would invite you to visit my website, www.samlevine.com or contact my office, Sam Levine, Attorney at Law.
