Although manufacturers might be far from the accident scene, they can still be held responsible for any defects in their products. Various defects could have caused the truck accident, such as manufacturing defects, marketing defects, or design defects.
If a specific make of truck has been recalled, it indicates that the manufacturer is aware of a defective part or engine malfunction. Legally, the manufacturer must attempt to reach all affected vehicles on the road. If the truck involved in your accident had a recalled part or was subject to a recall, the manufacturer and other distributors might be liable for failing to remove the truck from circulation.
