Los Angeles Judge Rules Against Car Owners in Defective Seatbelt Lawsuit

By Ross Jurewitz

ADVERTISEMENTS

On Thursday, a Los Angeles Superior Court Judge ruled that a seatbelt manufactured by Takata Corp. of Japan was safe and met federal safety standards. The ruling ended a lawsuit brought by car owners who had claimed that the TK-52 seatbelt--installed in approximately 4 million cars in California--was improperly tested and subject to its' buckle opening during collisions.

Lawyers for the car owners vowed to appeal.

Other class-action lawsuits against Takata had been previously dismissed in other lawsuits.
