In Fruehauf Corp. v. Lakeside Chevrolet Co. (1981) 117 Cal. App. 3d 783, the plaintiffs filed a negligence and strict liability action after their car was hit by a trailer that had become disconnected from the vehicle to which it was attached. Named as defendants were the owner (Power Tool), the seller/dealer (Fruehauf), and the distributor/dealer (Lakeside) of the trailer. Fruehauf cross-complained for indemnity and contribution against Lakeside. After Lakeside prevailed on its motion for summary judgment, Fruehauf appealed. The court affirmed, holding that Vehicle Code section 24007 exempted Lakeside from the duty to inspect or repair the trailer before selling it to Fruehauf. ( Id. at p. 789.)
