Austin Child Car Seat Defect Attorneys

A child’s car seat is meant to provide substantial protection from a collision. These car seats are meant to give a child reliable protection where a vehicle’s normal safety devices would prove ineffective or dangerous for use. Because safety features such as seat belts and airbags are designed for adults, they may fail to protect a child and could actually cause significant injuries. As a result, parents are dependent upon child car seats to keep their sons and daughters safe.

Car Seat Defects

Defects associated with car seats can prove to be especially dangerous, as a child may not recognize that something is wrong until they are injured in a collision. A defective part or covering can fail to protect a child from harm. In addition, some of these parts may even contribute to further injury.

The following problems may result in serious injuries for child:

• Defective buckles
• Restraint belt defects
• Plastic shell cracks
• Inability to secure car seat to the vehicle seat

The injuries that a child sustains may require immediate medical attention and can prove to be both emotionally and financially taxing for a parent, as well.
