A California state court jury returned a defense verdict last year in one of the first lawsuits to go to trial over carbon monoxide from exhaust gas supposedly leaking into the interior of Ford sport utility vehicles.
The Orange County Superior Court jury returned their verdict on October 17 in a trial that began with opening statements in mid-September. Plaintiff Brian McDowell, a former Newport Beach police officer, claimed carbon monoxide caused him to pass out and crash his Ford Explorer police vehicle into a tree in 2015.
Verdict for defendant.
