If you own or operate a Honda or an Acura, it’s important to make sure your vehicle was not recently recalled due to issues with its airbags. Airbag manufacturer Takata Corporation, as well as Honda, are facing a new class action lawsuit related to defective airbags. The lawsuit potentially involves millions of vehicle owners, and seeks to collect economic damages for owners of affected vehicles.
But besides economic damages, millions of vehicle owners and operators face the potential for serious injuries if they are involved in an accident that results in the deployment of the vehicle’s airbags. The recalled Takata airbags are responsible for at least four deaths and dozens of injuries.
Defective airbags that were manufactured by Takata are installed in millions of automobiles including those made by BMW, Chrysler, Ford, Honda, Mazda, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Subaru and Toyota. If you own a vehicle that contains a recalled airbag, it’s important that you have the airbag replaced as quickly as possible.
If you or a loved one was injured as the result of a defective Takata airbag, you may be entitled to recover compensation for your damages. The attorneys at Golomb Legalwill fight aggressively to hold the negligent airbag manufacturer accountable for your injuries.
