The Facts of the Case<\/strong><\/p>\n

In 1989, the plaintiff\u2019s father bought his mother a new BMW 525i. The plaintiff\u2019s mother was the only person who drove the car. In the spring of 1991, she noticed a smell of gasoline in the car at times. It caused her headaches, dizziness, and throat irritation. That summer, she became pregnant with the plaintiff.

In 1994, BMW recalled all of their 525i vehicles made between 1989 and 1991, due to defects in the fuel hoses.<\/p>\n

The plaintiff sued BMW in 2008, claiming that his disabilities were caused by exposure to unleaded gasoline vapor from a defective fuel hose in his mother\u2019s BMW while he was in his mother\u2019s womb. The plaintiff sued BMW in a personal injury action, claiming that the car\u2019s defective fuel hose caused his injuries.<\/p>\n
