Description
Plaintiff seeks damages for personal injuries caused when a restraining strap for a spare tire struck him in the eye. He sued Mrs. Rosenwald, the owner of the car on which the strap was being used, Volvo of America Corporation, the manufacturer of the car, and Santa Fe Mazda-Volvo, the dealer that sold the car. From a summary judgment dismissing the action against the manufacturer and dealer, plaintiff appeals. The dispositive issue is whether use of a restraining strap for a spare tire to span the roof luggage rack of a car was reasonably foreseeable so as to render the manufacturer and dealer liable under strict products liability. Under the undisputed facts presented, we hold it was not, and affirm.
