$10 Million Settlement for Lexus Car Accident Wrongful Death
Posted By Los Angeles Personal Injury Lawyer on Dec 27, 2010 3:40pm PST
Toyota just settled a Lexus car accident which occurred in 2009, which resulted in the wrongful death of an off-duty California Highway Patrol Officer, Mark Saylor, his wife, their daughter and the CHP Officer's brother-in-law. They were traveling on a San Diego freeway when a product defect caused their Lexus to reach speeds in excess of 120 mph whereby they struck an SUV, were forced into an embankment, which caused their vehicle to be involved in a car rollover-accident ultimately resulting in their vehicle bursting into flames. After this tragic car accident, accident investigators determined that an incorrectly sized floor mat trapped the car's accelerator which ultimately was the result of this auto accident. This accident was one of the primary reasons Toyota recalled millions of its cars to fix the accelerator pedal issues which may have saved hundreds or thousands of other people's lives. Where the settlement was reached for $10 million dollars.
