What types of defects are there?
There are design defects, manufacturing defects and marketing defects. A design defect is inherent in the product. A manufacturing defect occurs during the course of the product’s assembly. A marketing defect concerns the way a product is marketed such as improper labeling, insufficient instructions or inadequate safety warnings.
What should I do if I have been hurt by a product?
