You Need an Experienced Faulty Auto Component Lawyer in Houston, TX
When you drive your car you trust that all the components that make the vehicle work are made reliably, without defects. You place your trust in this fact as your speed down the highway at 70 miles per hour every day. So when a faulty auto part causes a serious injury or accident you are entitled to seek compensation.
About Defective Parts
Whether your vehicle has a product malfunction from seat belts to tires or airbags, each of these can cause catastrophic injuries. If you suffer severe injuries in an Houston auto accident due to a defective product, you may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, lost wages and more.
Common Types of Dangerous Auto Defects Include:
- Defective Tires
- Brake System Failure
- Malfunctioning Airbags
- Roof Collapse
- Car Fire (Electronics)
- Car Fire (Fuel System)
- If you purchased a vehicle that has serious defects, or that has been recalled by the manufacturer and sustained substantial injuries, the Stephens Law Firm can help you evaluate your options for legal recourse.
Proving Liability or Breach of Warranty
The first step in pursuing a defective auto part claim is to demonstrate that personal injuries and losses were a result of a defect in manufacturing, design, or there was a failure to warn of potential issues. A product is considered “defective” if it fails to perform as ordinarily expected when used for the purpose it was designed. Defect car part claims come down to three issues: strict liability, breach of express warranty, and breach of implied warranty
Class Action Lawsuits
If your accident was due to a defective product that is already in class action we can assist you in adding your case to the suit. Like most of our personal injury cases, it cost nothing upfront to join a class action suit. Contact our Houston auto lawyer today for a free consult.
