Mercedes Recalled For Driveshaft Safety Problem
Corbin Sutter
Recalls
Do you drive around the Suncoast in your Mercedes for business, pleasure, or both? Consumers buy these vehicles for a host of reasons. For instance, some people like them because they're stylish and make them feel sophisticated and classy. Meanwhile, others rely on the brand because its typically reliable, dependable, and safe.
Why did we say it like that, using the word typically? Well, if you caught that, it is because we have learned about a potential issue through the NHTSA Campaign 21V478000. There could be 1,522 model year 2016-2018 AMG GT vehicles on the roadways that may have insufficient bonding between flanges and the carbon-fiber driveshafts. So what does that mean, exactly, and in layman's terms?If this issue exists, your car's driveshaft could separate, causing a loss of drive power to occur. When that happens, the risk of crash increases. For example, losing power in the middle of an intersection could get your vehicle hit in the side. Or, if the issue takes place while someone is following very close, their auto could strike you in the rear end. There are numerous scenarios where such a dilemma might lead to an accident, but those examples probably give you the gist of it, so we'll stop there with them.
You Might Be Entitled To Compensation From More Than One Party
If negligence on the part of a driver was to blame for your accident and injuries, you might have the grounds to seek compensation for your damages. However, if it turns out something else was partially at fault, like a defective part, the injured individual may have a case against a manufacturer as well. Of course, they must prove that negligence happened in some form or fashion, though, and that's why they need an exceptional personal injury attorney in their corner.
The professional and their supporting cast will build a case that supports the client's position. Then, it will be organized and prepared for trial, but sometimes, these matters are settled outside a courtroom. So, don't be surprised if your attorney reaches an agreement with the other party before a judge and jury get involved. So, why seek compensation at all? That's an excellent question, and we'll see if we can answer it in the following section.
The Benefits Of Winning Restitution
