Is That A Subaru In Your Driveway?

When it comes to vehicles, there are tons of options on the market today. That's why so many different cars, trucks, vans, and SUVs can be found on the St. Petersburg roadways. Hence, if you're traveling down Central Avenue or another nearby street, you'll probably notice Ford, Chevrolet, Chrysler, and Subaru vehicles. Speaking of Subaru, plenty of residents have them in their driveways. They like the rides because they're safe, dependable, and stylish.

Do you have a Subaru at your house that you drive regularly? If so, good for you. That means you likely took the time to research the pros and cons of the unit and decided that it was a good fit.

However, that is enough tooting the horn of the manufacturer, as it has been brought to our attention that over eight hundred 2021 Impreza vehicles might have problems. As such, they can put people in danger, so if you're an Impreza owner, please, pay close attention to this information. That could be the difference between you staying safe or getting seriously hurt.

A Lower Control Arm Weld Failure


The autos in question may have lower control arm welds that can fail. If that happens, the cross member and control arm can separate. Then, the tire can come into contact with the wheel well, which may cause the driver to lose control, and when an operator loses control, their crash risk increases. Hopefully, your car doesn't have this issue, but you should still have it checked. It is advised that 2021 Impreza owners stop driving the cars until they have done so.

Why? Because if they fail to do so and the lower control arm weld doesn't hold up, they could get into a crash and be left with severe injuries, that's why. Ailments that follow auto accidents often include but are not limited to:

• Fractures and broken bones
• Lacerations and contusions
• Paralysis
• Lost limbs
• Traumatic brain injuries

A Personal Injury Attorney May Be Able To Help


If you get hurt badly, and someone else is to blame, why should you be liable for recovery expenses? To put it short and sweet, you shouldn't, even if the entity at fault is a manufacturer.

Manufacturers/sellers are responsible for the harm that their products cause. Hence, if you get injured, hold the responsible party accountable by filing a lawsuit against them. You probably aren't going to want to go it alone, though, as that can be quite an uphill battle and one that may get you nowhere.

These organizations typically have lawyers on retainers. They fight tooth and nail to prevent their clients from paying. That's why you need a personal injury attorney in St. Petersburg by your side. Not just any old professional will do, though. You're going to want the best when going up against a corporation, and who is that exactly? The St. Pete Lawyer, of course.

Michael Babboni began practicing law in Florida in 1987. He has years of experience handling personal injury cases as well as civil and criminal litigation.

However, you won't have to worry about that with Goldman, Babboni, Fernandez, and Walsh. Our team has the resources to take your matter the distance.
