A safe bike is important. Just like cars, motorcycles can be recalled by manufacturers for defects that can affect your health and safety. Manufacturer defects have affected a variety of functions on numerous brands of motorcycles, causing serious and sometimes fatal motorcycle crashes. Our lead motorcycle attorney in Manhattan, New York, Mitchell Proner, advises all riders to maintain their bikes in top shape and regularly check the manufacturer's website for recall information. Contact Proner & Proner today to learn more or to speak with a member of our legal team about your case.
A motorcycle defect could put you and other motorists at serious risk. We offer the list below so that motorcyclists can verify if their motorcycle has been the subject of a recall.
If your bike is on this list, the motorcycle accident lawyers of Proner& Proner urge you to check with your dealer to ensure that the proper maintenance or modification has been performed. Consumer Reports maintains an excellent list of recalls, which includes details on the required recall service. If you have been injured in a defect-related motorcycle accident, contact motorcycle attorney Mitchell Proner in New York today. We can provide you with sound legal counsel and advise you on your legal rights.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) or the manufacturers themselves instigate a motorcycle recall when a defect is discovered in a motorcycle. Regardless of whether a manufacturer or the NHTSA brought about the recall, the manufacture must file a public report that describes the defect, how it was discovered, and how the manufacturer will fix the defect. The manufacturer must also issue a scheduled time frame for the recall and attempt to notify owners of the motorcycles that have the defect. Even if the motorcycle owner is not notified of the recall, the manufacturer is bound by federal law to provide free repair to any motorcycle that has been the subject of a recall. Individuals involved in motorcycle crashes should contact a motorcycle attorney at our Manhattan-based law firm to determine whether a defective part or product might have been responsible for the accident.
There is almost always legal recourse for riders who have suffered injuries because of defect-caused motorcycle crashes. Our New York law firm litigates for clients across the United States who have been involved in accidents due to product liability. Various kinds of defects have been responsible for serious motorcycle crashes. Accidents have occurred when handlebar defects cause motorcycles to wobble and lose control at high speeds. Rear tire defects have caused motorcycles to lose stability and crash. Fuel line defects have turned relatively minor accidents into flaming infernos. Riders who suffer injuries in such motorcycle crashes deserve compensation for their injuries and may be due punitive damages if the manufacturer did not follow through with legal obligations. The lead motorcycle attorney of our New York law firm, Mitchell Proner, can review your case and determine whether you are eligible for financial compensation relating to your injuries.
Despite their best efforts to maintain their bikes and ride safely, riders sometimes become involved in defect-caused motorcycle crashes. If you have suffered injuries in an accident caused by a manufacturer's defect, motorcycle attorney Mitchell Proner, serving Manhattan, New York, and the entire United States, can provide you with sound legal representation.
