Defective Seat Belts Seat Belt Failure

Defective Seat Belt Lawyer New York City Defective Seat Belts: Seat Belt Failure & Malfunction Are Responsible for Catastrophic Injuries and Death

Defective seat belts can cause serious injuries and death in an auto accident. Seat belts are supposed to prevent injury, but sometimes they are designed so poorly that they cause injury. In fact, it has been shown that a seat belt failure can be even worse than not wearing one at all. Although the use of seat belts has been strongly promoted in the United States for years because statistics have shown that they save lives, many children and adults suffer from serious seat belt-related injuries due to seat belt malfunction and poorly designed seat belt systems each year.

It is the right of all passengers and drivers to assume that a seat belt is going to protect you from serious injury in the event you are involved in an auto accident. Since the failure to wear a seat belt is responsible for thousands of deaths each year, most states require you to wear a seat belt. This is why it is imperative that the seat belts should be properly designed so that seat belt failure does not occur.

Many of the restraint system manufacturers and major vehicle makers in the U.S have been aware for years that certain seat belt systems are poorly made, and some have the ability to unlatch in the event of an accident, causing serious injury and even death. Some of the injuries that may occur as the result of a defective seat belt or seat belt failure include:

  • Spinal cord injury
  • Brain or head injury
  • Paralysis
  • Internal injuries
  • Amputations
  • Broken Bones
  • Concussions
  • Fatalities
