At times, a critical element to an accident investigation relates to whether a mechanical failure or defect contributed to the cause of a crash. A mechanical inspection and analysis of an engine, brakes, suspension, electronics, fuel system, throttle, exhaust system, tires, linkages, hydraulics, transmission, wiring or other components may be necessary.
Introtech’s Mechanical Inspection Experts
All Introtech reconstructionists have mechanical training and expertise, but when necessary, we include our top forensic mechanical specialist, James Drozdowski. His expertise extends to suspension and braking components, fire cause and origin, engine, transmission, throttle, sudden acceleration analysis, exhaust systems, reading and interpreting fault codes through the vehicle’s DLC access, steering components and electrical systems.
When a mechanical failure is in question, the Introtech staff will complete the required inspection, apply the results to the accident reconstruction process and analysis. As vehicles are becoming more complex with advanced mechanical systems, a full accident reconstruction should include a consideration as to whether mechanical failures contributed to the cause of a crash.
