When an airbag is defective and instead of helping, it brings harm to you or a loved one, you should seek legal counsel. A Philadelphia defective product lawyer will take the time to examine the details of your case and determine if you have a legitimate claim worth pursuing.

Here are 5 airbag safety tips that can help prevent injuries and death: 

• keep at least 10 inches between you and the hub of the steering wheel where the airbag is located;
• have children or small-statured adults sit in the backseat;
• position the airbag so if it deploys, it will hit your chest and not your head;
• never place a child safety seat in the front of your vehicle; and
• wear a seat belt (don’t just rely on an airbag to save you in the event of a crash). 

You may have done all you can to keep yourself or a loved one safe, but if a defective airbag deploys and it causes injury, then compensation may be available. 

When a defective airbag injury is serious or leads to death, you may be entitled to pursue a claim against the manufacturer or anyone else involved in the making or selling of it. Contact a Philadelphia defective product lawyer to discuss your case.
