Roof Crush

U.S. Vehicle Roof Crush Lawyer

One of the most important elements of a vehicle's crashworthiness is the structural integrity of the roof. If the roof is deformed in a rollover or other type of auto accident it may directly cause an injury or cause other safety systems to lose critical value in protecting the occupant. If vehicle roof crush from a defective roof or other structural defect has led to a serious injury, you want an attorney who will take on the auto industry. At the Dallas law offices of the Tracy Firm, we represent clients nationwide in auto safety defect product liability cases.

When the roof of your car and its support pillars show considerable buckling and downward crushing, compromised roof strength is a likely defect issue. If a faulty roof was a contributing factor [PDF], we can help you evaluate your claim and protect your rights. Focusing solely on vehicle safety defect product liability, we have the resources to evaluate your vehicle roof crush claim and take on the responsible parties.

Many years ago, Ford noted that it was unjust to penalize occupants who wore their lap and shoulder belts, and thus were seated erect, if the roof was so weak that it buckled down on them. It is the job of auto manufacturers to produce motor vehicles with roofs strong enough to withstand the pressures of an accident.

SUV Rollover

The ability of a roof to withstand pressure is never more important than in an SUV rollover accident. A structural defect in a roof can lead to major neck, spine, and head injuries in rollover accidents. Many cars and SUVs have weak points that cause the roof to buckle under in rollover accidents. We know what to look for when evaluating a vehicle roof crush accident.
