What Are The Most Common Types of Product Defect Claims?

December 12, 2019 | By Hach & Rose, LLP
What Are The Most Common Types of Product Defect Claims? a photo of a frayed cableWhile any product could be defectively designed or manufactured, some products are more likely to be defective and cause harm than others. Some of the most common product defect claims include children’s toys, medical devices, pharmaceuticals, auto manufacturers, chemicals or other hazardous materials, and industrial equipment. Children’s toys and products acquire several defective product lawsuits. A typical case for defective children’s toys is lapses in design, such as creating products easily swallowed by children. In other cases, manufacturers use hazardous paint or potentially dangerous substances on the products. That leads to long-term health issues for the children. Even something as innocent as an infant sleeper product could result in significant harm or death if the product is defective. Medical devices and pharmaceuticals produce thousands of product liability defects. These include improper equipment, such as defective hip implants, and defective drugs, such as Viatrexx for lack of sterility assurance or Suboxone for unexpected side effects. This is according to the 2019 Drug and Food Administration data. Auto manufacturers are involved in our daily lives, whether commuting on the bus or buckling in your child. There are plenty of cases with a fault in design or manufacturing. These result in deadly consequences for the consumer. These cases are severe and sometimes life-threatening, From poorly designed SUVs whose top-heavy design subjects the driver to a rollover accident to defective car seats. Chemicals or other hazardous materials could cause severe harm to those who handle them or are exposed to them. A significant lawsuit arose 1998 against the Owens Corning Corporation because asbestos building materials caused mesothelioma cancer and death for several consumers and workers. Defective industrial equipment is often cited in injury cases.
