Window Glazing Defects

Car Accident Attorneys in Atlanta, Georgia

Fatal injuries are three times more likely, in a car accident, when victims are ejected from the vehicle. Many of these ejections could have been prevented if proper windows were installed in the vehicle or if proper window glazing technologies were used. Clients of Harris Penn Lowry, LLP know that when they come to our law firm, no resource will be spared to get to the bottom of their case. We focus on getting answers: was an auto defect to blame for their injuries, or the wrongful death of their loved one?

Our attorneys have the experience, knowledge, and skill to thoroughly investigate cases involving window glazing defects and other auto defects. In fact, we have successfully resolved countless related cases in Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina, and throughout the United States. We have the resources and determination to take on auto-makers in a product liability lawsuits.

Defective Auto Glass Claims

There can be many reasons for ejection from the vehicle, from door latch defects to defects in roof structure. However, window integrity is an integral part of keeping occupants within the vehicle.

  • Laminated glass: Federal law mandates that all front windshields be made of laminated glass, which is much safer than other options. Windows made with laminated glass (made through window glazing technologies) do not expose occupants to shattered glass when the vehicle crashes, and do not allow opportunity for ejection through the window.
  • Tempered glass: Side windows, sun roofs, and other windows can be made of tempered glass. While tempered glass may be cheaper, windows made with tempered glass shatter in an accident. Not only can the shards of glass cause serious injuries to the occupants, but the shattered tempered glass windows create an opening for occupants to be ejected.

Window glazing defects can cause the glass to shatter and expose the vehicle occupants to ejection — further resulting in preventable catastrophic injuries and death. At Harris Penn Lowry, LLP, we hold auto-makers accountable for their defective vehicle designs (using tempered glass rather than laminated glass on the side windows) and for manufacturing defects (window glazing defects in the windshield or other windows).
