Do I have a good case to sue?

[ORGANON CANON]

My father got into a hell of an accident and the car (Q45) is a complete right-off. He suffered a concussion as well. I realize you may need more details so let me know if ya do. Anyway's the car got smashed he ended up in the hospital and the air bags didn't deploy? Can I go after the company for this, or perhaps the dealership it came from as it was a used car?

Just add "extra cash" to the list of your demands when you climb the water tower to thin out the neighborhood.

If you did want to go the sue route then yes i think they are liable for the non-deployment of the airbags. If legal strategy doesnt work the unibomber needs a replacement. IMO

hope your dads OK bro.

I would need to know more facts.

But, based on products liability law, if the airbag didn't deploy b/c of a product design or manufacturing defect, you would likely have a suit.....

I was talking to my Mother today (accident was yesterday) and she had to take him to the hospital because his blood pressure was 58 over 30. He has been on medication for 35 years for HIGH blood pressure. I don't know if it is his injuries or the fact he is diabetic.

How much c4 do you need to build a bomb to destroy a factory?

His injury MUST be the result of the accident. If not, then absolutely no recovery...

Does age of the car make a difference in whether the company is liable for air bag not working?
I wonder how well most 10 year old air bags are holding up?
Doesn't the gas cylindar leak eventually no matter how well designed? Like a stale battery that isn't used for a long time.
