Even if no one has been injured yet but you own one of these cars, we can advise you on how to obtain financial relief. Were you injured or did you lose a loved one after a defective air bag in one of these cars failed to protect occupants? We can advise you on how to build a product defect claim. Vehicles made with the defective air bags have included the following makes and models: Which Vehicles Contained The Defective Air Bags? In other words, the purchasers or lessees who believed in the integrity of their vehicles’ safety features paid more through a higher purchase price or lease payment than they would have if the defect had been disclosed.

Since 2009, thousands or millions of consumers have bought or leased vehicles – including many that are listed below – made with defective air bags. Even when these companies allegedly learned of the defect by 2011 or later, it was 2018 before they took action to protect consumers.

We have worked hard to pursue justice for consumers defrauded by Hyundai, Kia, Honda, Toyota, FCA US LLC, Mitsubishi and ZF-TRW Automotive Holding Corp. Our investigation has looked into evidence of fraud and concealment on the part of multiple car manufacturers that installed these air bags in their vehicles.

When a car manufacturer has clear evidence that a safety feature in its cars does not work as intended, but fails to notify owners of those cars, that company puts people’s lives on the line.
