If an airbag recall led to injuries for you or someone close to you, there could be legal grounds to seek compensation from responsible parties.

When functioning as intended, airbags can be lifesavers, mitigating head injuries during vehicular accidents. However, if the inflator mechanism is flawed in its design, as we have in this case, it can inadvertently detonate, propelling fragments toward the driver or passenger’s head and neck. This can cause severe harm to vehicle occupants, including brain damage and death.

Should you or a loved one get injured because of a faulty recalled airbag, you might have a viable airbag lawsuit. The national mass tort lawyers at Miller & Zois are currently accepting airbag recall injury lawsuits. Contact us today at 800-553-8082 for a free consultation.

Product safety testing discovered dangerous levels of benzene in several major brands of spray-on deodorant (and body spray).

Benzene is a notorious human carcinogen that has been shown to cause leukemia. Unsafe levels of the carcinogen were found in some of the most popular deodorant brands including Old Spice, Secret, Suave, and Tag.  The FDA has established a benzene limit of 2 ppm in cosmetics. Yet, independent lab tests revealed that some recalled deodorants and antiperspirants had benzene concentrations as high as 9 ppm.

The discovery of benzene in spray-on deodorants could have major ramifications similar to those seen after benzene was found in sunscreen earlier this year. We could see sweeping product recalls before the end of 2021, followed by hundreds of product liability lawsuits against the deodorant manufacturers.
