Product Liability Attorney in Denver

Defective automobiles or auto parts can cause accidents and injuries. Examples are SUVs that have a tendency to roll over, motorcycles that wobble at high speeds, and tires that blow out, causing loss of control of the vehicle. Automobile defects that may give rise to product liability claims can exist in the braking system, the accelerator, the exhaust system, the fuel system, the electrical system, the steering and suspension, and virtually any part of the automobile.

Strict liability applies to defective auto product liability claims. It is not necessary to show that the responsible party was careless. It must only be established that:

• The vehicle or one of its parts had an unreasonably dangerous defect that caused your injury.
• The defective vehicle or part caused your injury while the vehicle was being used as it was intended to be used.
• The vehicle had not been substantially changed (in a way that would affect how it performs) after it was sold.

Dangerous and defective consumer products cause injuries every year. Examples include dangerous drugs, toys that present lead poisoning, choking, or strangulation hazards, and poorly designed industrial machinery leading to workplace injuries. Product liability claims are an effective way for consumers to hold designers, manufacturers, distributors and other responsible parties accountable for the harm their products cause.
