Defective Products
We expect the products we purchase to not only work correctly, but to not cause injury. Unfortunately, this is not the case. As we have seen with the recalls of vehicles and the numerous incidents of food-borne illness this year, nearly any product on the market can cause injury or even death. Defective products cause thousands of needless injuries every year across the country, and Oklahoma is no exception.
Reasons Products May Be Defective
There are three different reasons that lead to a product being defective. These reasons are that the product was defectively manufactured, there was a design defect with the product, or the manufacturer failed to properly warn consumers of any dangers.
A defectively manufactured product means the product was made incorrectly and does not perform its intended function. The product could also have components that do not function correctly or the product was made with faulty materials.
A design defect in a product means that the product was not designed correctly or there was an error in the way it was designed. A design defect can cause the product to fail or be dangerous if used.
The product could be dangerous if warning labels are missing or if the assembly and safety instructions are inadequate. The failure to warn consumers could cause you to unknowingly use the product in a way that can make it dangerous.
If a defective product causes an injury, the following parties could be responsible:
- The manufacturer
- The distributor
- The wholesalers
- The retailers
