Installing Airbag Covers could land you in Court (Dummy Airbags) |
||
|
Airbag covers (Dummy Airbags) are a popular cosmetic alternative for automotive dealers who don't want to invest in repairing the vehicle to factory specs. This product is a simple dummy cover that goes in place of the SRS airbag modules. The dummy cover offers a false sense of security for the unaware owner or passenger of the vehicle. To that effect most, car dealers installing such covers are asking car buyers to sign a liability release waving any right to prosecute them in a court of law. However, signing the release may omit dealers from prosecution but could land you in a court room defending your decision. Simply stated, any unaware person riding in the passenger seat could take you to court for injuries suffered in your vehicle. If the vehicle is equipped with airbags and you choose not to replace or install airbags your legal problems could over shadow any savings. Another more plausible scenario is the fact of reselling your vehicle and not having the new owner sign the release. The legal quagmire is endless and could easily have been avoided using less expensive recycled airbags. |
