Paul Walker’s Daughter Sues Porsche: Claims He Was Burned Alive Due To Faulty Car

Nearly two years after his tragic death, Paul Walker’s daughter, Meadow, is suing Porsche because she believes the faulty car killed him, not the impact of the crash that occurred on Nov. 30, 2013.

According to a wrongful death lawsuit filed by her lawyers, the Furious 7 actor survived the impact of the crash that took his life on Nov. 30, 2013, but he was burned alive due to the faulty car.
Meadow’s lawyers claim that when the Porsche Carrera GT crashed, Paul’s seat belt “snapped Walker’s torso back with thousands of pounds of force, thereby breaking his ribs and pelvis,” trapping him in his seat, according to the lawsuit obtained by TMZ. The suit also claims the fire didn’t erupt until 1 minute and 20 seconds after the impact. When the fire did break out, Paul was allegedly still alive. “Paul Walker breathed soot into his trachea while the Porsche Carrera GT burned,” the suit further claims.

Police said the cause of the crash was speeding, but the lawsuit says Roger Rodas (Paul’s friend) was only driving between 63 and 71 MPH shortly before the impact. If the Porsche had a proper stabilization system, according to the lawsuit, the car would have never swerved out of control.

“The bottom line is that the Porsche Carrera GT is a dangerous car. It doesn’t belong on the street.  And we shouldn’t be without Paul Walker or his friend, Roger Rodas,” Meadow’s lawyer, Jeff Milam, told TMZ.
