Oaks Park sues roller-coaster maker for ride malfunction, calls Italian company 'negligent'


Recommended Posts

Back in June, Oaks Park's "AtmosFEAR" ride, got stuck upside down on the first day of the park's season: https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2024/06/15/oaks-amusement-park-portland-ride-stuck-upside-down/74076733007/
The ride reopened about a week and a half later but they never determined the cause of the malfunction: https://www.koin.com/news/portland/atmosfear-open-again-oaks-amusement-park-ride-malfunction/

Now the park is suing Zamperla over the incident. https://www.oregonlive.com/portland/2024/09/oaks-park-blames-italian-roller-coaster-maker-for-ride-malfunction.html

Interesting that this comes 3 months after the incident. I wonder if they found something with the ride or they're just trying to pass the blame to cover the costs of a lawsuit by one of the guests involved in the incident.
