Holding The Makers Of Defective Products Accountable

What Makes A Product “Defective?”
A product may be “defective” if it contains a manufacturing defect, a design defect, or a warning defect.
A manufacturing defect occurs when the product is different from what the manufacturer intended;
A design defect occurs when the product failed to perform as safely as an ordinary consumer would expect; and
A warning defect occurs when a product does not have a warning that adequately instructs consumers how to use the product without harm or when a product does not have a warning that informs consumers of the risks or side effects of using the product.
