Finding An Attorney After A Gas Tank Explosion

One of the most dangerous product defects is when it involves a motor vehicle. Consumers expect their vehicles to be safely designed and manufactured, and any errors can lead to catastrophic injuries. A gas tank rupture could cause a sudden vehicle explosion, leading to third-degree burns, amputation injuries, disfigurement, disability and more. In the most serious cases, a defective gas tank could cause a fatal burn injury due to the resulting automotive fire.

If you have been seriously harmed or lost a loved one due to a fuel tank defect or a car fire in Seattle, you must know your options. At Pendergast Law, our experienced lawyers offer the professional guidance you need while providing compassionate assistance at this difficult time. We are creative and highly rated, and we have recovered millions for our personal injury clients. If you are looking for a gas tank explosion attorney, call now for a free consultation.

Why Do These Defects Occur?

The specific reason for the defect that led to the exploding gas tank can help to define your options in the case. For instance, perhaps the vehicle had an inherently dangerous design and never should have been built or sold in the first place. Or, perhaps there were errors in the manufacturing process that undercut that design’s safety and made the car highly dangerous. Perhaps the car should have been subjected to a recall, but the manufacturer put it off, not wanting the bad publicity.

In other words, every case is unique, and multiple parties may be responsible. Whether the issue is a design defect, auto manufacturer negligence, or something else entirely, injured parties need to know their rights to seek compensation for medical bills, lost wages, reduced earning capacity, pain and suffering, and more.
