Types of Auto Product DefectsThere are many ways in which an auto manufacturer can create a vehicle that is unsafe. A vehicle may be produced with inherent design flaws, such as a center of gravity that is too high. This will predispose the vehicle to rollovers, which can cause significant injury to the people inside. A manufacturer may also utilize faulty components when building a vehicle, resulting in an automobile with seat belts that don’t work, airbags that don’t deploy when they should, or doors that won’t unlock in critical emergency situations (such as a car fire or immersion in water).
