West Virginia Product Liability Claim: Injuries from a Defective Airbag

While airbags are designed to protect drivers and passengers, they can lead to injuries that may require filing a West Virginia product liability claim. If you would like to know how to protect your legal rights after an accident involving a defective product, then you should consult with a Clarksburg defective product lawyer.

The manufacturer may be held liable for your injuries if they were caused by a defect or malfunctioning. If anyone else involved in the making or selling of the airbag is found to be negligent, they could also be held liable.

Some common injuries that can result from a defective airbag that may lead to a product liability claim include: 

• traumatic brain injury;
• blindness;
• hearing loss;
• fractures;
• burns;
• decapitation; and
• death. 

Most of the injuries occur to the victim's upper body and can be especially traumatic when the accident happens at a high rate of speed. Injuries from a defective airbag can lead to expensive medical treatment and care that may be recoverable through a claim.

You may be eligible to file a West Virginia product liability claim related to a defective airbag if you were injured by one. Consulting with a Clarksburg defective product lawyer is the best way to learn what legal options are available.
