Thousands of products are recalled every year because of the harm or potential harm they cause to consumers. When you are severely injured as a result of a dangerous product, the manufacturer becomes subject to a products liability lawsuit. Even though a product has been recalled, the recall does not absolve the manufacturer or distributor of responsibility if someone is harmed.
Products can be defective as a result of poor design, faulty manufacturing, improper storage, and lack of warning labels or false advertising claims. Some examples of defective products include drugs without proper warning of dangerous side effects, contaminated foods, faulty seat belts, poorly engineered automobiles, unsafe toys, toxic pet food and so on.
Class action lawsuits frequently become the most practical and effective legal means of dealing with responsible parties when a large consumer base is involved.
