What Is Product Liability?
Product liability refers to the legal responsibility of manufacturers, distributors, suppliers, and retailers to ensure that their products are safe for consumer use. When a product is found to be defective and causes injury or harm, the responsible parties can be held liable for damages. In the field of product liability law, three main types of product defects can lead to liability claims:
- Design Defects: These occur when the design of a product is inherently dangerous or flawed, making it unsafe for use. Even if the product is manufactured correctly, a design defect can cause serious injury.
- Manufacturing Defects: These defects arise during the production or assembly of a product. A manufacturing defect can result from poor-quality materials, substandard workmanship, or a deviation from the product’s design specifications.
- Marketing Defects (Failure to Warn): These involve inadequate instructions, warnings, or labels that fail to inform consumers about the potential risks associated with using the product. Proper warnings are essential to ensure safe usage.
Common Examples of Defective Products
Product liability claims can arise from a wide range of defective products. Some common examples include:
- Automobile Parts: Faulty brakes, airbags, or tires can lead to serious car accidents and injuries. Automotive design defects can lead to rollovers, roof crushes, and fuel-fed fires or explosions occurring after a collision.
- Medical Devices: Defective implants, pacemakers, or surgical instruments can cause significant harm to patients. Pieces can break, perforate tissue, fail to monitor properly, or cause infection.
- Pharmaceuticals: Unsafe drugs with severe side effects or incorrect dosages can result in adverse health conditions. In the quest for blockbuster profits, dangerous drugs may get rushed through the FDA approval process without adequate testing for safety and effectiveness.
- Household Appliances: Defective electrical appliances, such as toasters or space heaters, can cause fires or electric shocks.
- Children’s Toys: Toys with small parts, sharp edges, toxic materials, or choking hazards pose significant risks to young children.
