$23.4 Million Ford Explorer Rollover Verdict for Woman Left Paralyzed
A California jury found against the Ford Motor Company and entered a verdict of $23.4 million for a 2007 freeway accident that left her a quadriplegic after her 1997 Ford Explorer rolled over.
Cynthia Castillo lost control of her 1997 Ford Explorer when the tread separated from her left-rear tire as she drove on the freeway.
The SUV veered off the freeway and rolled three times down an embankment, leaving her legs and most of her body paralyzed. Flaws in the vehicle's design caused it to lose control when the tire tread separated, according to her attorney.
