A Federal Jury recently found GM liable for a rollover accident that killed a 14-year-old boy and awarded $3.5 million in damages. The boy was riding in a 1995 Chevy Blazer. Plaintiff’s lawyer demonstrated to the jury that the Blazer’s track width was too narrow to support its height, making it unstable and prone to rollovers. http://www.law.com/jsp/article.jsp?id=1202422377390
Similar claims have been made and proven with respect to other SUVs, including the Ford Explorer and Toyota 4-Runner.
