Commercial Truck Defects & Injury Claims | NJ, PA, DE & NY
Freightliner Trucks is one of the largest manufacturers of heavy-duty commercial trucks in the United States. These vehicles are widely used for long-haul transportation, logistics, and freight delivery across major highways throughout New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and New York. While Freightliner trucks are essential to the supply chain, defects in their design or manufacturing can lead to devastating accidents involving passenger vehicles, other commercial trucks, and pedestrians.
Freightliner-related recalls have included issues involving braking systems, steering components, electrical failures, and engine defects. When these systems fail, drivers may lose control of large and heavy vehicles, increasing the risk of catastrophic crashes. Brake failures, for example, can result in high-speed rear-end collisions, while steering defects may cause trucks to drift across lanes or jackknife.
Accidents involving Freightliner trucks often lead to severe injuries due to the size and weight disparity between commercial trucks and passenger vehicles. Victims may suffer traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord damage, crush injuries, internal organ damage, and fatalities. Rollover accidents and multi-vehicle pileups are also common in cases involving defective commercial trucks.
