This woman has a perfect base for accusation — if she lived in an altenate dimension where Dr. Seuss was king of the universe and little green men walked around in suits all day.

This is ridiculous. If I want a car that has the best roll rating, then it is my job to find it. In our free market, money rules. If I offer to pay $25 to a company just for a few details like this, then companies will keep doing the research. If I don’t know the roll-ability of my vehicle, then it is my job to drive slower. The blame FORD is akin to making suv’s and truck’s illegal. If FORD is liable because they knew it, then we are all in violation as well because Consumer Reports has been telling us this for at least the past 25 years that I have been old enough to remember. And if indeed this is “wrong” for a vehicle to exist that can roll over, then we all should have to drive ferrari’s since they are really low to the ground. And we shouldn’t have any more skiing either because it takes trucks and suv’s to get there. And no more camping unless there is a level, paved road to the campsite. Do you not see the rediculousness of this? Companies build what we want. If we started caring, they wouldn’t be able to sell high-rolling cars. So if we don’t care enough to buy them, why should they care enough to try and make us? Free market works. Stupidity doesn’t.

it’s called, Ford not accepting responsibility for its vehicle, and hiring attorneys who can’t hold a candle to one who knows how to try a case.

as a mechanic i have seen defective vehicles in my time while working on them. i have also know the simple
fact that it is not the car it is the driver and the mistakes that one make while doing so. the mother
should have been found guilty of neglegance because of no seatbelt on the passenger

Can’t the mother be charged with neglect for knowingly operating her her vehicle while a passenger was not wearing a seatbelt?

I guess we know exactly how much her son meant to her. ($16.7M)
