Toyota Matrix
If you are the owner of a larger vehicle, you likely know that vehicles with a disproportionately tall profile and narrow width have a higher risk for rollover accidents than others. However, as the owner of a compact utility vehicle or sport wagon, you also deserve to expect that your automobile is not going to endanger your welfare due to its design. The Toyota Matrix has a lower risk for rollover than many other compact utility vehicles, as the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) rated the 2011 model at a 13.6% risk. SUVs typically register greater than 15%, so the Toyota Matrix rates a little bit better.
However, accidents can still happen, and if you are injured in a rollover accident involving a Toyota Matrix, you might be entitled to pursue financial compensation. Rollover accidents are serious and can result in expensive repair and medical costs. If your Toyota Matrix has rolled over in an accident and you were hurt, contact the qualified passenger vehicle rollover lawyers of the Willis Law Firm by calling 800-883-9858.
