Florida Vehicle Fire Injury Lawyers
While many people remember the classic case of the Ford Pinto and other exploding gas tank cases that happened years ago, these problems still exist and can cause vehicle fires that result in serious burn injuries to drivers and passengers. The design of a car may be the cause of a vehicle fire. A design flaw or defect may even cause a fire to happen when a minor car accident occurs.

Miami Car Fire Attorneys
When vehicle collisions happen, they can result in damage to the fuel tanks, fuel lines, and other parts of the fuel system. Common causes of vehicle fires may include:
- Poor placement of fuel tanks
- Tanks placed outside of vehicle frames
- Tanks placed between bumpers and axles
- Defective fuel line materials
- Improperly designed shut-off valves
- Faulty gas system designs
Depending on the safety mechanisms installed by the manufacturers and the location of the gas tanks in these vehicles, the risk of explosions and vehicle fires may vary. Manufacturers who fail to eliminate these risks may be held liable for the injuries caused by accidents that could have been prevented through reasonable safety steps.
