Motor Vehicle Accidents
Vehicle defects can be viewed from several perspectives:
Product design defects
These are not limited to just the vehicle systems components,
but include the documentation and literature that are apart of the vehicle
Manufacturing Assembly defects are a consideration when the
factory doesn’t do its job properly and it results in
injury or property damage.
Automotive industry knowledge is essential when vehicle design
comes into consideration. American Technical has the capabilities to
evaluate vehicle defects and the proper equipment to facilitate the evaluations
Automotive diagnostic equipment
Crash Damage Recorder
The CDR data can be extracted directly from the vehicle or extracted for
use later and “bench” extracted. Data most often referred to includes:
| Drivers Seat Belt status |
Passenger front air bag suppression |
Vehicle speed prior to crash |
| Brake switch circuit status |
Percent throttle |
Engine speed prior to crash |
American Technical can provide a “Black Box” presentation to you or your
organization for a better understanding of what the vehicle Black Box
means to your case.
