Airbag Injuries in New Albany

We've seen that defective airbags, like those made by Takata, can be dangerous. When these airbags deploy, they can send sharp metal fragments into the car, injuring drivers and passengers.

Injuries caused by defective airbags can range from deep cuts and scarring to eye injuries and even death. Sometimes, these airbags fail to inflate properly during an accident, which means they don't protect you as they should. This can lead to neck and chest trauma, skull fractures, and brain injuries.

The problem usually lies in the inflator component of the airbag. A defective seal can let moisture in, making the propellant unstable. This is especially risky in hot and humid areas.  

If you have a valid defective airbag claim, you may be able to seek compensation for medical expenses, pain and suffering, lost wages, and other damages that apply to your case. The process can be complicated, but it's worth it to cover your recovery costs and hold those responsible accountable.

Keep in mind that Takata knew about the defect since 2000 and tried to cover it up. This makes your case stronger if you're seeking compensation.
