Types of automotive cases

 

Product Defects: Defective vehicle components can lead to dangerous malfunctions and costly repairs. Our firm represents consumers affected by:

  • Engine Issues – Problems such as excessive oil consumption, transmission failures, or premature engine failure.

  • Safety Hazards – Defects that pose risks, including unintended acceleration, spontaneous fires, and roof collapse concerns.

  • Component Failures – Issues affecting essential parts like sunroofs, headlights, brakes, dashboards, and more.

 

Consumer Fraud: Automakers and dealerships have a responsibility to provide accurate information about their vehicles. When they engage in misleading practices, consumers suffer financial and safety consequences. Common fraud-related claims include:

  • Misrepresentation – False or exaggerated claims about a vehicle’s performance, fuel efficiency, or safety features.

  • Failure to Disclose – Concealing known defects or systemic problems, leaving buyers unaware of potential risks.

Antitrust Violations: Unfair business practices in the automotive industry can limit consumer choices and drive up prices. We handle cases involving:

  • Price Fixing – Automakers or parts manufacturers colluding to artificially inflate costs.

 

Public Nuisance Cases – Claims involving widespread issues that pose risks to public safety, such as the Hyundai and Kia vehicle theft epidemic caused by security vulnerabilities.
