Children like to ride on motorized vehicles such as All Terrain Vehicles or ATVs because they are fast and can go through rough land. However, ATVs can be inherently dangerous, and that is especially true if the ATV is defective in some manner. There are significant risks associated with children riding ATVs, such as head, spinal, and abdominal injuries, abrasions, and possible burn injuries resulting from contact with the engine or exhaust system. The Federal Consumer Safety Commission has reported recalls on several ATV models over the years. A cause of action may be sustained against a manufacturer of an ATV if it malfunctions or is defective in design. For instance, the parents of a child that is injured by an ATV that rollovers over may have a viable cause of action against the manufacturer of the ATV for defective design if he or she can demonstrate that the center of gravity of the ATV was designed to high, therefore, it was more likely to cause a rollover
accident and result in injuries.
