Attorney Todd Tracy is suing a handful of auto facilities, a dealership and LKQ in relation to a fatal vehicle crash. Tracy claimed one or more of the defendants involved failed to notice the vehicle's air bag was not working, or had installed an aftermarket replacement air bag part that did not work at the time of the accident.
