A Dallas personal injury lawyer experienced in handling product liability claims informs auto accident victims who have been severely injured because of a defective auto product. BMW’s MINI Cooper 2009 John Cooper Works and JCW Clubman models were recently recalled because of the defective brake system.

The National Highway Transportation Safety Administration (NHTSA) found the MINI vehicles that are equipped with 16-inch diameter front brake discs rather than 17-inch discs pose a severe danger to those on the roadways. When a vehicle’s brakes malfunction, it can lead to auto accidents resulting in grave injuries and even fatalities.

Defective brakes can be attributed to:

• Manufacturing errors caused by negligence.
• It can also result from automakers’ decisions to cut costs and boost profits at the expense of consumer safety.

What should you do?

• Contact BMW at 1-866-275-6464 or by e-mail at mini.assistance@askminiusa.com to make inspection arrangements after receiving their recall notice.
