Learn About Your Legal Rights from an Experienced California Airbag Defect Lawyer

While airbags are supposed to help keep us safe, defective airbags can present risks for serious injuries. When defective airbags cause serious injuries, their manufacturers deserve to be held fully accountable. If you think you may have a claim for an airbag defect (or if you don’t know and want to find out), we strongly encourage you to speak with a California airbag defect lawyer at our firm as soon as possible.

Are You Entitled to Financial Compensation for an Airbag Defect?

Determining if you have an airbag defect claim requires a thorough assessment of your specific circumstances. If your answer to each of the following questions is “Yes,” you should talk to a California airbag defect lawyer about your legal rights:

  • Were you (or was a loved one) injured by an airbag?
  • Did you have medical records that document your (or your loved one’s) injury?
  • Has it been less than two years since the accident?
  • Do you have documentation of the accident (i.e., photos or a copy of the police report)?

If your answer to any of these questions is “I don’t know” or “I’m not sure,” it will still be well worth scheduling a free consultation. It costs nothing to learn about your legal rights, and you owe it to yourself and your family to ensure that you are making informed decisions.

What is the California Airbag Law?

Under California law, it is illegal to import or sell any vehicle that has a “nonfunctional airbag.” Functional airbags have also been required under federal law since 1998. If a vehicle manufacturer sells a vehicle with a defective airbag, it can—and should—be held accountable.
