We have been an integral part in multi-district, class action and individual cases involving nearly every vehicle manufacturer such as Ford, General Motors, FCA (Fiat-Chrysler), Honda, Toyota, Volkswagen, Nissan, Hyundai-Kia. These cases include litigation regarding Toyota sudden unintended acceleration (SUA), GM ignition failures, crashworthiness, airbag failures, seatbelt failures and many others.

Ponderosa uses state of the art equipment and software tools, including 3D laser scanners, traditional survey equipment, drones, air-bag (CDR) and ECM download tools, HVE, 3D-Studio, PhotoModeler and many others.

We are highly skilled in photo analysis, 3D graphics, simulations and animations.  We are experienced in finding the details that matter, presenting our work to a jury, and testifying in deposition and trial.
