Tesla Recalls 1.85 million Vehicles due to Hood Issue – Tesla Defect Injury Lawyers

When the hood of a car is unlatched, it can suddenly open during driving and block driver view and potentially lead to a crash. When their view is suddenly completely blocked, drivers may crash into other vehicles or even objects. Some drivers might panic and slam on their brakes, resulting in rear-end crashes. No matter the type of crash that occurs, consumers could sustain a number of injuries, which could include the following:

• Head injuries, concussions, and traumatic brain injuries
• Neck injuries and back injuries
• Spinal cord injuries
• Shoulder injuries
• Hip injuries
• Pelvic injuries
• Knee injuries
• Dislocations
• Fractures
• Nerve injuries
• Ligament injuries
• Muscle injuries
• Impaling injuries
• Crushing injuries
• Road burn
• Lacerations
• Scrapes and bruises

No matter the specific harm that you or a loved one suffered in an incident caused by defective Tesla software failing to warn about an unlatched hood, you could have the right to file a lawsuit.

Yes, you could be entitled to file a lawsuit. Your right to sue will likely be based o the concept of negligence, which states that all product manufacturers have a duty to ensure that their products (including vehicles) are safe to be made available to consumers. When auto manufacturers fail to identify and address defects in their vehicles prior to making them available to consumers, they can be liable for all resulting harm. This means that injured consumers could file lawsuits against Tesla. For more information about your right to sue, contact us today.

Under the California lemon law, you may have the right to pursue a claim. In general, vehicles still under warranty with persistent issues that cannot be fixed even after reasonable repair attempts are defined as lemons. Under the lemon law, affected consumers could pursue claims and get reimbursed for any out-of-pocket costs for repairs/rentals, all payments made on the vehicle, and even a replacement vehicle, for example. It is important to note that lemon law claims are separate from injury claims.
