Dodge Minivan Seat Back Failure Lawsuit Injury Lawyer

Many vehicles have problems with weak seat backs, especially minivans. The Dodge minivan is no exception, creating a dangerous situation when these vehicles are involved in a rear-end collision. If the front seat backs fail, the passenger in the front seat and the driver can be flung backward, causing serious injuries to them and other passengers.

Seat back problems have been occurring for decades, yet most of the seats meet the minimum safety requirements. The standard for seat back performance has been set so low that it does little to protect drivers and passengers from injury. When a Dodge minivan seat back failure occurs, the driver can be thrown backward, limiting their control of the vehicle. The motion can cause serious injury to the spine and increase the chance of a more dangerous crash if the driver is unable to control the vehicle.

Poor Safety Standards for Seat Backs

The safety standards for seat backs were created in 1967, yet these only set a minimum level for safety. Due to these low standards, vehicle manufacturers like Dodge are not required to create seat backs that can withstand the impact of a rear end crash. There have been pushes by consumers, attorneys and even politicians to improve the safety of seat backs, imploring the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to impose better regulations to protect those who buy and use these vehicles. Unfortunately, even if standards are improved, there are already millions of vehicles with weak seat backs on the road that pose a danger if they are involved in an accident.

Bruce Millar The Millar Law Firm Atlanta, GA

As an Atlanta Attorney I have known Cale Conley personally for nearly 20 years. I first heard about Cale through other lawyers, who talked about his remarkable skill and great results as a trial attorney. When I finally had the chance to refer a case to Cale and work with him as a colleague, I was blown away by the level of his professionalism, knowledge and skill. Over the past few years I have referred several clients with large and complex cases to Cale and his firm and have been extremely impressed with the results he has obtained! In my opinion, Cale is one of the best Attorneys in the United States. Not just in Atlanta or Georgia, but anywhere. I am totally confident in referring any case or client to him. Not only is he a great attorney, he and his firm and partners take good care of clients and care deeply about them. If I could give Cale and his firm more than 5-Stars I would.

I had the pleasure of trying a very complicated products liability case with Cale Conley and Davis Popper. They and their entire office are fantastic, and I could not recommend them more highly. The entire process, from the time that we brought them in to work with us, through the course of the case and trial, was seamless. Cale, Richard, Rance, and Davis are some of the finest trial lawyers in the Country, and I look forward to working with them on future cases.
