Product Liability Court Awarded Settlements:

•Flax v. DaimlerChrysler Corp. arose out of the death of eight-month old boy when the Dodge Grand Caravan his grandfather was driving was rear-ended by a pickup truck that was traveling at an excessive rate of speed. The boys mother, was seated in a captain's chair directly behind the driver's seat. The child was in a child safety seat in the captain's chair directly behind the front passenger seat. The collision caused the backs of the seats of the driver and passengers to yield rearward into a reclining position. The front passenger seat collapsed far enough for The passengers head to hit the childs haed, causing the young boy to suffer a fractured skull and brain damage. The child died immediately. The court of appeals affirmed the award of $5,000,000 in compensatory damages for the boys wrongful death.

•An federal jury awarded a New York woman $15 million after finding that the tire of the motorcycle she was riding on was defective and led to an accident that left her with severe brain damage. The jury deliberated for 15 hours over two days before they made their decision to hold Goodyear Dunlop Tires North America Ltd. liable for the accident.

•Perhaps another sign of Ford Motor Company's present perilous financial condition is a very modest punitive damages award in an SUV rollover case. The plaintiff was injured when the Ford Explorer she was driving on the highway lurched forward due to a defective gas pedal design. The driver panicked and turned the wheel suddenly, causing the vehicle to roll over. She suffered permanent serious hand and arm injuries. The jury awarded $10.6 million in compensatory damages. The compensatory award was reduced by 28 percent because the plaintiff was speeding at the time of the accident, and reduced by a further $2 million because she was not wearing a seat belt, to a total of about $7 million. In addition to the compensatory award, the jury awarded only $42,500 in punitive damages. In rebutting the plaintiff's evidence of Ford's financial condition, the defense introduced evidence of the automaker's recent mass layoffs and losses. Perhaps the jury was influenced by Ford's report of a net loss of $12.7 billion for 2006 and announcement in January 2007 of plans to eliminate 25,000 to 30,000 jobs in North America and to close 14 assembly plants by 2012.
