Auto Defect Lawyer Holding Car Manufacturers Accountable for Unsafe Vehicles

Fighting for Victims of Dangerous Vehicle Design and Manufacturing Errors

At The León Law Firm, we represent drivers and passengers injured due to vehicle defects. As an experienced auto defect lawyer, we take on automakers and parts manufacturers whose negligence leads to catastrophic injuries. From faulty airbags to structural failures, we help clients recover damages and demand justice.

Legal Services for Defective Vehicle Injury Claims

Vehicle defects are often hidden until an accident occurs. These failures can make crashes far worse—or even cause them. We pursue product liability claims against manufacturers, parts suppliers, and distributors when dangerous design or production defects harm consumers.

Defective Airbag Attorney

Airbags are designed to protect lives—but when they fail, they can cause serious harm. We represent clients injured due to:

Non-deploying airbags
Accidental deployments
Shrapnel from faulty inflators (e.g., Takata)
Sensor and timing malfunctions

Vehicle Crashworthiness Failures

A car should protect its occupants during a crash. We pursue cases involving:

Poor cabin integrity or weak frames
Roof crush during rollovers
Door latch or fuel system failures
Fire risk from inadequate crash protection

Crumple Zone Failures

Crumple zones are meant to absorb energy during a collision. When poorly designed, they contribute to injuries. We investigate:

Structural collapse around the passenger cabin
Overly rigid or non-collapsing front/rear zones
Improper crash force distribution

Seat Belt Defects

Seat belts must function properly in an impact. We handle claims related to:

Unlatching or tearing on impact
Defective locking retractors
Improper tensioning or slack
Design flaws causing internal injuries

Reinforced Frame Malfunctions

Reinforced vehicle frames are crucial for crash survival. When they fail:

Cabins collapse or twist under impact
Passenger injuries are intensified
Manufacturer liability is triggered

Auto Defect Injury FAQs

How do I know if a defect caused my injury?

We work with forensic experts to assess whether a vehicle malfunction worsened your crash or caused it.

Can I sue the car manufacturer?

Yes. If the vehicle was defectively designed or manufactured, you may have a product liability claim.

What if my car was recalled?

Recalls strengthen your case—but are not required. Many defects exist even in non-recalled vehicles.

What damages can I recover?

Medical bills, lost wages, future treatment, pain and suffering, and vehicle replacement.

Do I have a limited time to file?

Yes. In Texas, you generally have two years from the date of injury to file a personal injury or product liability lawsuit.
