A product was manufactured in a defective condition. This means that the manufacturer made a mistake during the manufacturing process. A manufacturing defects renders an otherwise safe product unsafe or unreasonably dangerous.
A product’s design is defective. This means that the way in which the manufacturer designed a product renders that product unreasonably dangerous. A product is considered defective if the danger is unknowable and unacceptable to the average or ordinary consumer. A product is also considered defective if a reasonable person would conclude that the probability and seriousness of harm caused by the product outweigh the burden or costs of taking precautions.
A product was not equipped with adequate instructions or warnings. This means that a necessary warning advising consumers about one or more inherent hazards was not included with the product.
