Automotive Defects
Seat belts, air bags, and other routine safety features on vehicles are supposed to keep drivers and passengers safe. Travelers on Texas roads count on these items to safely hold them in place, to cushion them from bone-crushing objects at the moment of impact, and to save their lives or mobility in the event of a vehicle collision or rollover. This is the hope but not the reality. Too many Texans and their families pay the cost of defective automobiles every day. Sometimes they pay with their lives.
