Todd has handled more than 2,700 cases against automakers, and what he’s uncovered should give every parent pause. From collapsing front seats that crush children in rear-end crashes, to three-row SUVs that act like trash compactors in rear impacts, Todd explains how many serious injuries aren’t only caused by the person responsible for the crash - but by vehicles that fail to protect the people inside them.

The conversation covers dangers most families have never been warned about: reclined seats that disable seatbelts and airbags, seatbelt “submarining” injuries in children, and how improper collision repairs can turn a survivable wreck into a life-altering tragedy. Todd also breaks down what parents should ask after a repair, what to look for when buying a used car, and how to spot when a crash may involve a vehicle defect - not just bad luck.

This episode is a must-listen for parents, caregivers, and teen drivers. It will change how you think about car seats, SUVs, safety ratings, and what “safe enough” really means - before your next drive.
