Dangerous Products Millions of people are injured each year using consumer products that are dangerously defective. From food and drugs to auto parts, medical equipment or even a child’s toy, defective products can result in serious injury or death. Product liability law exists to protect you, the consumer, by holding manufacturers and retailers accountable for the safety of their products.
Product defects are generally divided into three categories: design defects, manufacturing defects and marketing defects. Design defects exist even before the product begins to be processed or manufactured. They are defects that are intended or ‘built in’ to the product. Manufacturing defects are those that occur during the manufacturing process. For example, the gears of a bike may be properly designed but if not correctly installed, may result in an accident. Finally, marketing defects include improper instructions or a failure to warn consumers of the latent dangers of the product.
The consequences of a defective product vary greatly depending on the type of product and the extent of the injuries incurred. Some consumers may have experienced temporary injuries, others life-long injuries which result in expensive medical bills, loss of wages and sometimes even death.
