Air bags were first installed in vehicles in 1985 as an added safety precaution to prevent serious injuries in the event of an automobile accident. The air bag is supposed to inflate on impact during a collision and prevent the driver and front passenger from suffering serious head, chest, and neck injuries. These air bags are typically located in the steering wheel and dash board. Currently, numerous automobile manufactures around the world equip vehicles with front, roof, and side impact air bags which may help prevent all passengers from coming into contact with hard surfaces during accidents. You should be able to rely on your air bags. Air bags should not fail, and should not be defective products.

Unfortunately, many people sustain serious and even fatal injuries each year due to air bag failure during automobile accidents. Air bag failure is when an airbag fails to or does not properly inflate during an accident, and the driver and/or passengers are at risk for serious physical injuries if they hit their head on the dash board or steering wheel. Air bag failures also occur when an air bag deploys without an accident. These air bag failure accidents may cause severe injuries no matter what speed the vehicle is operating at when the air bag inflates.

Children and smaller adults are at the most risk for air bag accident related deaths and serious air bag failure injuries, due to their smaller size. The following is a short list of injuries that victims of air bag failure accidents may sustain:

• Blindness
• Eye injury
• Head injury
• Neck injury

If you have been seriously injured due to an air bag failure or defective air bag, the manufacturer may be held liable for any injuries that occurred due to their negligence or for producing a defective product. An experienced Seattle air bag failure attorney at Teller & Associates may be able to recover for you the monetary compensation that you deserve for your air bag failure related injuries.
