Airbag Safety
Airbags came into use in the 1970s as a safety feature for automobiles. Their intent was to help cushion a car occupant’s body from the impact of a collision. While many of the earliest models were defective, airbag technology has improved greatly. Now, almost all new cars are manufactured with airbags on both the driver and passenger sides of an automobile.

Defects and Injuries
Despite the vast improvements in car safety features, occasionally defects still occur. Airbags that deploy without provocation (collision) can cause serious injury. Additionally, if airbags fail to deploy in the event of a collision, injuries may also occur. Common injuries associated with defective airbags include:
- Broken bones, especially in the face and chest
- Bruising
- Broken nose
- Black eyes
- Concussion
- Skin damage
- Contusions
- Hearing damage
If you have been the victim of a defective airbag, you may be eligible to receive compensation for your losses.
