Liability for Recalled Product Injuries – Defective Products Laws

Under California Common Law and Statutes there are generally three ways in which a manufacturers of a defective product can be held liable for a victims injuries.  In the court of law a plaintiff will have to prove the presence of one of three forms of defects.  (1) Defective manufacturing of the recalled Product (2) Defective in the design of the recalled Product of (3) A failure to warn the consumer of the dangers and hazards of the products use.

Manufacturing:  Manufacturer defects take place when there is a mistake in the manufacturing method, which causes the manufactures good to be different from its intended desing. The product will be considered defective when it is different from its original design, even though care was exercised to avoid this issue. When considering whether a product has a manufacturing defect, the important question is always whether it was designed in conformity with the manufacturer’s original plans. If there is some type of deviation then a manufacturer defect is considered to exist.

Product Design Defects: A design defect takes into consideration the overall design of the product. Was the product properly designed? Did the manufacturer have more suitable designs which were less likely to cause harm? Did the manufacturer anticipate the use of the product? When you bring a cause of action for design defect, the ultimate premise is whether the design makes the product defective. If the product is found to be defectively designed then you may be entitled to recovery for injuries sustained.

Product Labeling Defects: Manufacturers have a duty to warn consumers of the known dangers from the use of the product. If the manufacturer does not adequately warn of a known risk then it can be held liable for injuries which take place from the product use. While manufacturers are not required to warn of obvious dangers, the courts apply an objective test to determine knowledge. Would a reasonable person know whether the product was defective or noticed the inherent issue? This is the objective standard test and specific knowledge is not considered. Manufacturers must warn through proper instruction of the various known risks or risks they could have discovered through reasonable discovery.
