Seat belt and airbags are made to protect drivers and their passengers in case of an accident, not contribute to injuries. In addition, seatbelt laws are in place in most states, and many times the failure to wear a seatbelt is cited as the cause or contributing factor for injuries. However, defective equipment can cause more harm than if a seat belt was not worn. Defective seat belts and airbags can also cause more damage than the actual impact with the other vehicle or object outside your car.
Seat belt injuries and airbag injuries can occur if equipment is defective by design, production or installation. Defective seat belts can cause serious injury, such as damage to internal organs. Airbag failure can cause even greater injuries such as facial injuries, skin abrasions, fractures, eye damage or loss of vision, and more.
