    What To Do When A Defective Car Part Caused Your Accident

    R: Hello Mr. Cleary. As a leading personal injury lawyer in Miami, you have to be a fierce advocate of your client’s cases and to make sure the insurance companies are held accountable. This is your main domain of expertise?

    S.M. C: Hello. Yes, I am the president of The Law Offices of Sean M. Cleary, personal injury law firm focusing on car accidents, trucking accidents, and other motor vehicle situations that result in an injury. Many accidents happen as a result of a mechanical malfunction, technical failure or another car defect where it was supposed to be none. When something like this happens, the insurance company or the car manufacturers can be held responsible.

    R:  Can you tell us what are the most common design or mechanical defects that lead to catastrophic car accidents. What should consumers pay attention to when they buy a car?

    S.M.C: I advise everybody to do regular preventive maintenance to keep your ride happy. Older cars, from the resellers, as well as new ones, are likely to be involved in accidents. For example, tire blowouts cause many accidents. People should always check the pressure in their tires. Sometimes you’re not able to notice or to feel it when driving.

    Another common cause of accidents is an electrical problem. Something goes wrong with the electrical cables, and a short circuit occurs. Smells of burnt or melted plastic should never be ignored. Pull over immediately, stop the engine and have the car towed to the repair facility.

    One of the biggest auto recalls in American history centered around an exploding airbag and this is a technical error I often encounter.

    Automobiles have advanced technologies that make everything easier. For example, the ABS sensor, fixed to the hub of a drive tire is responsible for monitoring many vehicle functions such as traction control, anti-lock braking systems, and the vehicle’s speed. When the sensor is failing or going bad, it will usually affect the operation of other vehicle functions and display specific warning signs that you can immediately notice as you drive. But once in a while, something can go wrong. That’s why your car needs to be regularly checked and serviced.

    R: What can we do if a defective car part causes an accident?

    S.M.C: If you get into an accident because of a defective part, you have rights. For example, if the manufacturer had not yet released recall information at the time of the accident, it may be liable for the injuries and damages the faulty part caused.

    First, keep all evidence from the accident. You should save anything that could support your claim or help prove that a faulty car part caused your accident. Also, take pictures of the crash scene, your damaged car, and any injuries, assuming you’re well enough to do so. If not, ask a friend or family member to help you. It’s essential.

    Another piece of advice? Don’t get your car repaired until you’ve hired a car attorney. Fixing your car means losing the evidence, and you’ll need the car in “faulty” condition for when your lawyer has his or her experts come to inspect the defective parts.

    Defective car part crashes are complicated, and a lot of factors come into play. I highly recommend consulting an experienced personal injury attorney before talking to the insurance companies or attempting to handle the manufacturer on your own.

    • Looks like the new Mercedes-AMG S 63 E PERFORMANCE was spotted testing in South Africa 🇿🇦

That start-up sounds pretty damn promising!

This thing packs a whopping 791 hp (590 kW) and 1,430 Nm of torque.

    • We waited a fair bit for the Tiguan R to arrive but that means it has been given enough thought and executed with the sort of German precision that makes us happy to have waited.

As fast SUVs go it’s a cracker, and with a price tag starting from R1,014,900 it is actually decent value in the segment.

It’s fun, aggressive when you want it to be and remarkably civilised when you don’t. Cars like this rarely make sense, but the Tiguan R is one case where that argument starts to change one's mind.

We cannot wait to drive the matching Golf next week!

    • The very first SA-spec BMW M2 snapped at BMW HQ in Midrand.

Zandvoort Blue would not be our choice but the looks have certainly grown on us. What about all of you?

    • If you’re expecting a faster, angrier and more focused version of the original 86, you’re going to be happy with this car.

Toyota finally gave the 86 more power. It’s not take-your-breath-away power, but again, it’s not made to win drag races. If you want more power, get a Supra.

Sure it is a bit more pricey this time around but it is a no-regrets kind of car that you will enjoy just as much today as 10 years from now.

Long live the manual transmission, especially when it’s packaged within something as fun as the Toyota GR86.
