Vehicle Door Latch Defects

A tiny defect in the design, manufacture or installation of a latch mechanism can have catastrophic repercussions. A defective door latch can lead to door failure in an accident, resulting in partial or total ejection of vehicle occupants. When an automaker negligently places the lives of American consumers at risk by ignoring evidence of door latch defects, that company may be held responsible for substantial damages in an auto product liability lawsuit.

Miller Weisbrod Olesky, LLP is a nationally-recognized leader in the area of plaintiffs' personal injury trial law. We welcome the opportunity to stand up and fight for the rights of injured clients who have suffered due to auto industry negligence and greed. Contact us for more information or to schedule an appointment today.

The Catastrophic Consequences of Vehicle Door Failures

Occupant ejection is a leading cause of catastrophic injury and death in passenger vehicle accidents. Drivers and passengers who are partially ejected may suffer amputation of limbs or decapitation, especially in rollover and roof crush accidents. Occupants who are thrown out of a vehicle because of door failure in an accident or while in normal operation may suffer catastrophic brain or spinal cord injury or even immediate death due to massive trauma.

Any rational person would think that automakers, faced with this knowledge, would go the extra mile to ensure passenger safety by minimizing or eliminating the risk of door failure due to defective door latches. Unfortunately, this has not always been the case.
