SUV Rollover Accidents

With the ever-increasing popularity of SUVs and other large vehicles, rollover accidents are a growing threat to Oklahoma drivers and drivers nationwide. Because SUVs and some trucks have a higher center of gravity than sedans or smaller vehicles, they are at an increased risk of rolling over at high speeds, around sharp turns, or in a vehicular collision. Even though vehicle manufacturers were aware that top-heavy SUVs are more likely to roll over, some automakers did not adequately take this risk into account in the design and manufacturing process. Therefore, auto accident attorneys around the country have successfully sued manufacturers over this defect.

If you or a loved one has been injured in an SUV rollover accident, you may have grounds for a product liability lawsuit against the vehicle manufacturer. Especially if the carmaker has previously been held liable in rollover lawsuits, you may be able to recover damages for pain and suffering, medical expenses, as well as past, present, and future loss of income. Stipe Injury Law is dedicated to helping the victims of accidents and defective products receive fair compensation for their injuries, and our Oklahoma accident attorneys will fight for your rights every step of the way.

In addition to a product liability claim, if your SUV accident injuries were from a crash involving another vehicle, the other driver may also be held responsible for your injuries. Stipe Injury Law’s experienced accident attorneys are ready and able to help you with an auto accident lawsuit.
