Every year hundreds of thousands of cars, vans, SUV's, and trucks are recalled, some voluntarily and some mandatory, throughout the United States due to various design and manufacturing defects which pose a threat of injury or death to consumers. Many vehicle defects and car part defects are caused by automakers who skimp on quality in order to keep their costs down, unbeknownst to consumers who believe they are purchasing high quality, safe vehicles.

Listed below are some automotive defects that may result in a vehicle being recalled:

• Dangerous seatbelts
• Defective or sidesaddle gas tanks
• Faulty door latch
• Faulty or defective airbags
• Weak and defective seatbacks

If you or a family member owns a car that is defective, you should immediately contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) or the Department of Transportation and report the hazard. As a concerned consumer, it is your right to report vehicle defects as a means of holding auto manufacturers liable for the faulty and unsafe vehicles they make, and at the same time may prevent innocent people from experiencing serious injuries or fatalities.
