PITTSBURGH – A Wexford Cadillac dealership is facing a lawsuit after a man was allegedly injured when a service garage door collapsed on the vehicle he was in.
Cash Kennedy filed a complaint Dec. 13 in the Court of Common Pleas of Allegheny County against Baierl Cadillac Inc. alleging premises liability and negligence.
The suit states Kennedy was at Baierl Cadillac on Perry Highway in Wexford on June 29 and was a rear passenger in a vehicle driving through the dealership's service garage door. The suit states the door collapsed onto the vehicle, causing Kennedy to sustain a herniated disc that required surgery as well as other injuries.
Kennedy alleges that Baierl allowed a dangerous condition to exist and failed to install sensors in the door that could have prevented the accident.
Kennedy seeks monetary relief of more than $35,000 and all other just relief. He is represented by Adam Shorr and Anthony Giannetti of Swartz Culleton PC in Pittsburgh.
