$7 Million Jury Award Against Ford Motor Company in Explorer Rollover Case | Seattle Attorney

A jury has awarded a fmaily over $7 million in a lawsuit against Ford Motor Company. An Arkansas man was killed in 2000 when his 1994 Ford Explorer rolled over twice and he was partially ejected despite the fact that he was wearing a seatbelt. The lawsuit claimed that For knew that certain vehicle defects could result in serious injuries or death to drivers in a rollover crash but continued to sell the vehicle anyway. The man's family were engaged in litigation with Ford Motor Company for more than 10 years.

The jury found the Explorer to be a "defective and unreasonably damgerous product."

In recent years juries have awarded accident victims more than $580 million dollars in damages in 13 different court cases against Ford.
