Manufacturing companies have the responsibility of delivering safe products to their consumers. This duty, in the legal realm, is known as product liability. Under product liability laws, any party involved in the production and sale of products may be held liable for injuries that result from customer use of these items. If a manufacturer makes an error during production that eventually results in injury or death to an unsuspecting user, then this party is held responsible for any damages that may have occurred.

If you or someone you love has been injured by a product with a manufacturing defect, then you may have a legal right to damages. Call the St. Petersburg manufacturing defect lawyers of Beltz & Ruth, P.A. today at 800-931-8106 to learn more about the legal options available to you.

Manufacturing defects can arise even in products that have been very carefully planned and designed. They are always unintentional, and they can be particularly dangerous because they are incidental, meaning that they do not affect all products that are made. Design defects, on the other hand, are inherent in the planning of the good, and they are present in all manufactured products. While customers can be protected from design defects through product recalls, warnings and widespread communication, there are no such safeguards for manufacturing defects.

Common manufacturing defects arise in the form of systems that do not meet the set specifications and material defects, such as cracks or weak spots. Tires that blow out easily or brakes that fail before they should (and without warning) are examples of automotive manufacturing defects.

If you have been hurt by a product with a manufacturing defect, then you may have the right to take action against the company liable for making such a devastating error.
