Over 205,000 Vehicles Recalled By Car Makers: Is Yours One of Them?

While you may not think that a Subaru Outback and Chevy Corvette have much in common, a current recall begs to differ. Both vehicles are involved in recalls that affect over 200,000 cars.

 

Two Recalls, Two Serious Hazards

 

In the first of the two recalls, Subaru announced that their newer model Outbacks and Legacys contain a defective windshield wiper motor. The motor can easily overheat, causing either the wipers to stop working mid-swipe or the unit to get so hot that it melts. The melting motor and motor housing has the potential to catch fire, harming not only the vehicle, but any occupants as well. This recall affects nearly 200,000 Subaru vehicles.

 

The second recall was performed by Chevrolet. Their 2011-2012 Chevy Corvettes have been found to contain faulty rear hatches. In the event of an accident, the hinges, failing to meet safety standards, cannot bear the weight of the rear hatch. This causes the hatch to separate and cause serious injuries. The recall will affect over 5,000 Corvettes.

 

When a Defect Causes Harm

 

While some recalls are announced before anyone is harmed, too many are started only after motorists have been injured or killed. If you believe your Dallas car accident was caused by a defective car part, you have the right to seek an investigation into it. You may even have the right to sue the car manufacturer for damages related to the accident. Your first step should be to contact an experienced, aggressive Dallas motor vehicle defect lawyer at Guajardo & Marks for your free consultation. This call could mean the difference between getting compensated for your losses and being left holding the bill. Call 1.877.290.1382 today.
