Sutton Injury Lawyer Explains Fuel-fed Fire Product Liability Claims

A Sutton injury lawyer can help you sort through the legal process if you are in an accident involving a fuel-fed fire. These may occur during a collision when the gas tank or fuel line of a vehicle ruptures, explodes and catches fire. It may engulf the car and anyone inside. 

A fuel-fed fire may be the result of a defect, improper installation or many other reasons. It may lead to serious and life-threatening injuries for anyone in or near the vehicle at the time of the accident. 

Fuel-fed fires can lead to injuries such as: 

• severe burns, disfigurement and permanent scarring, due to the fire and extreme heat surrounding the car;
• broken bones, skull fractures, head trauma, spinal cord injuries and traumatic brain injuries, from projectile objects or if thrown from the car;
• lacerations due to shattered glass or being thrown from the car; and
• death. 

If you’ve been the victim of a fuel-fed fire, it’s important to consider filing a product liability claim to recoup your costs. You could be facing expensive bills for medical treatments and prescriptions, as well as lost income, pain, mental anguish and suffering.  

If the fire was the result of a product defect or error, you deserve compensation. Call 888-436-0859 to speak with a Sutton injury lawyer at The Miley Legal Group, and learn more about our legal options today.
