That sounds like a case of Class A1 negligence on behalf of that company.
Fair enough if they had made a product and were unaware of the potentially fatal flaw, but now that they have been made aware of the fact that the brake hoses foul on the suspension and will obviously wear through and they have chosen not to recall the item...
Any fatal collision results in the vehicles involved being mechanically inspected by police or engineers on the behalf of police, this information is then passed on to the coroner. If a companies faulty product contributes to the collision that company may be prosecuted, but they very much leave themselves open to a civil action. And well, if the company was aware of the potential for their product to fail but actively decide not to recall the product, that just compounds their negligence.
