Car Fires
Car fires are often the result of auto accidents, or defective parts. In some situations, they may be the result of both the negligence of another driver and a defective car part. Some fires may simply be the result of a part that was installed improperly.
Regardless of the cause, they can result in severe burns to the driver or passengers of the vehicle. Treatment can be painful for burn victims. And when treatment is completed, victims may still have substantial scarring and long-term injuries.
Car Fires Caused by Cruise Control
There have been recent cases in which spontaneous fires have started as a result of a defective cruise control. These fires can occur when the car is running, or even when the ignition is off and the key has been taken out of the car. These fires are caused by failure of a brake seal. Leaking brake fluid then comes into contact with the electrical circuit of the cruise switch, causing a fire.
Car Fires Caused by Ignition
Automatic starters and manual starters may be defective or installed improperly, eventually leading to a fire. These fires, and all other car fires, can cause serious harm, not only to drivers and passengers, but to people in the surrounding area if the fire spreads.
All Cases Handled on a Contingency Basis
In car fire burn injury cases, you will only be asked to pay attorney fees if we are successful in recovering compensation for you.
