Pittsburgh Seat Belt Failure Lawyer

In 1993, Jim Bordas and Scott Blass tried and won what was at the time the only second-impact seatback collapse case ever won against a major auto manufacturer. The case was even tried against a defense lawyer who had never lost in court. The $3.6 million verdict against Honda in Ohio County, West Virginia, served notice that defective seats and seat belt systems were a danger to American motorists that could lead to tragedy and death.

The Strope v. Honda case was featured on the television program “Inside Edition” and reflected Bordas & Bordas’ engagement of nationally renowned safety experts and whistleblowers who helped bring dangerous industry practices to light. Bordas & Bordas’ practice in the area of defective automobile safety equipment has continued in major cases like Stowers v. General Motors and Clegg v. DaimlerChrysler.

Defective Seat Belts

Seat belts are designed to save lives, but when they are defective or improperly designed, they can put lives at risk.

Some seat belt injuries are the result of a seat belt not doing its job due to a malfunctioning latch, faulty retractor or other defect. When this occurs, the occupant is at risk of being thrown from the car or crashing against the inside of the car.
