Vehicle Rollover

At Langdon & Emison, our lawyers work hard to hold car manufacturers liable for designing dangerous and unstable vehicles.

Brockman v. Toyota (Toyota Pickup Rollover), Confidential Settlement. A Toyota pickup truck rolled over after a wheel dropped off of the roadway while driving through a construction zone where the contractor failed to make the edge of the road even with the highway. This case resulted in a confidential settlement.

Ford / Firestone Litigation (Ford Explorer / Firestone Tire Rollover). There were numerous cases involving Ford Explorer rollover accidents that occurred in Mexico. The Firestone tires detreaded, causing the loss of control of Ford Explorers. These accidents caused many deaths, paraplegia, and serious injuries. 

Patrick v. Ford (Ford Explorer / Michelin Tire Rollover / Aged Tire). A family of five was driving home to Las Vegas from attending a family funeral in Oklahoma. After suffering a flat tire overnight, the family continued their trip using the full-sized Michelin spare tire. After only a short time, the Michelin tire experienced a catastrophic failure and detread. The Ford Explorer rolled while still on the highway. Each member of the Patrick family suffered injuries in this accident and Carol Patrick was killed.
