Common Types of Airbag Defects
When you think of an airbag defect, rapid deployment often comes to mind. This is a common airbag defect, but it’s not the only one.
Failure to Deploy
Airbags are designed to deploy when a vehicle is struck with a significant amount of force. If the airbag fails to deploy, you and your passengers may sustain serious injuries that may have been preventable.
Improper Sensitivity
Some airbags have malfunctioning sensors that can cause early deployment. If a driver is suddenly surprised by an unexpectedly deployed airbag, an accident can occur. Along with surprising the driver into a car accident, the force of the deployment can cause significant injuries.
Improper Installation or Replacement
Most airbags are installed at the time the vehicle is manufactured. If the airbag is improperly installed, it might not function as intended when an accident occurs. Another problem occurs when a third party replaces or repairs an airbag. Some repair shops use poorly recycled or faulty airbags when replacing one that was previously deployed.
Common Types of Airbag Injuries
Airbag injuries in Las Vegas can range from minor to severe. Some common types of airbag injuries include:
- Facial injuries, including bruising and fractures to the small bone due to the impact of the airbag
- Chest injuries, including heart injuries, due to the impact of the airbag against the chest
- Burns on the chest, hands, arms, or face when the fabric of the airbag moves along the skin
- Fractures including to the skull, ribs, and wrist bones
- Traumatic brain injuries
- Eye injuries from chemical irritation or the pressure of the airbag
- Ear trauma, including hearing loss
- Internal bleeding if organs are damaged by airbag deployment
- Asthma attacks and other respiratory issues due to the chemicals involved in the deployment
- Injury to the fetus in pregnant women
