VEHICLE DEFECTS

Commonly, drivers or other individuals involved in a traffic accident may claim or suspect that a defect or failure in a vehicle component caused the incident or contributed to it or the resulting injuries.  We use our knowledge of and experience with vehicle systems to analyze the claims, in order to determine whether they have merit.  This commonly involves investigations in one or more of the following areas:

·        Hydraulic Brake Systems, Including ABS

·        Air Brake Systems

·        Steering and Suspension Systems

·        Unintended Acceleration Incidents

·        Seat Belt Evaluations

·        Air Bag Systems

·        Engine Failures

·        Vehicle Crashworthiness

·        Motorcycle Controls

·        Axle and Wheel Failures

·        Vehicle Mounted Powered Devices
