Porsche Faces Lawsuit From Paul Walker's Daughter

Meadow Walker is the 16-year-old daughter of the late Paul Walker, and she is filing a lawsuit against Porsche. A 2005 Carrera GT driven by Paul’s friend Roger Rodas is at the center of the suit, as it was the car in which Rodas and Walker died after Rodas lost control and crashed on November 30, 2013. Meadow Walker’s lawsuit alleges that Porsche produced a car with serious defects affecting its safety, and that these defects resulted in the untimely death of her father.

Per Meadow Walker’s complaint, the Porsche Carrera GT has a history of instability and the automaker took no steps to correct the issue. Additionally, the suit alleges, the implementation of the seat belt installation created an unsafe environment should the car be in a violent impact. The claim is that this seatbelt placement caused Walker to become injured during the initial crash and then trapped while the car caught fire and burned to the ground. The complaint continues that this model of Porsche utilized very weak side-impact beams in an effort to keep the car light.
