Defective Auto Parts

Florida Auto Defect Claim Attorneys

A motor vehicle is a powerful piece of equipment. Any defective auto part or faulty design can create a serious hazard to the occupants and other drivers. At TKO, we hold car manufacturers, engineers, and other negligent parties accountable for injuries or wrongful death that result from an auto defect.

Pursuing Accountability and Justice



Contact our Fort Lauderdale-based law firm to discuss your claim with an experienced auto defect lawyer.

A car accident claim involving an auto defect is very complex. At TKO, our attorneys understand the high level of preparation investigation, and resources that are necessary for these cases. Through our use of multiple experts, test reports, and other materials, we work to create a solid claim for liability.

  • Vehicle recalls: Was the vehicle recalled due to defective auto parts? Should the model have been recalled?
  • Rollover testing: How did the vehicle rate for rollover stability or rollover crashworthiness? Did a defective design cause a roof crush in an SUV rollover?
  • Tires: Did the tires have sufficient tread? Were used tires placed on a new vehicle? Were the tires made with defective parts? Were the correct tires mounted on the wheels?
  • Airbag safety: Did defective sensors cause the airbag to release unnecessarily? Did the airbag fail to respond? Were proper warnings posted regarding airbag safety?
  • Seatbelt failure: Did a defective seat belt cause inertial unlatching? Did the seatbelt break or otherwise fail?
  • Fuel tanks: Was the fuel tank improperly shielded from potential impact? Did a defective leaking fuel tank cause an explosion or car fire?
  • Brakes: Did brake fluid leaks, defective ABS systems, or other brake defects cause the brakes to lock-up or otherwise fail?
  • Other auto defects: Was a child safety seat defective or dangerous? Did the door latch fail? Was the seat properly designed? Was the steering compromised?

At TKO, we recognize that you are likely to have many unanswered questions following a serious motor vehicle accident. The insurance company won't answer your questions, the manufacturer accepts no blame, and you are left alone and in the dark. We understand the devastation a serious accident can cause. We work diligently to find answers, obtain justice, and recover full compensation on your behalf.

If you or a loved one has been involved in an accident, the manufacturer of a defective auto part may be liable. Contact our South Florida injury law firm to speak with our experienced auto defect attorneys.
