What Kinds of Products Can Cause Injuries?
When you think about product liability cases, power tools, vehicles, and other inherently dangerous products may come to mind. In reality, however, virtually any consumer product can cause injury if it is defectively designed, manufactured, or marketed. Some examples of consumer products that often cause injury when they are defective include:
- Furniture
- Appliances
- Cosmetics
- Toiletries
- Tools
- Baby products
- Toys and games
- Sports equipment
- Electronics
- Motor vehicles
The Three Types of Product Liability Cases
Product liability cases fall into one of three categories:
- Design Defects – design defects make products inherently dangerous to use and typically affect every instance of a product
- Manufacturing defects – manufacturing defects occur when shoddy workmanship, substandard materials, or other problems with the manufacturing process make a product defective
- Marketing defects – marketing defects occur when a manufacturer fails to warn consumers about a non-obvious danger that could easily be mitigated by providing a warning
