A defect is a condition in a product that makes it unreasonably dangerous when used as intended.
A design defect exists when the product’s overall design makes it unsafe for its intended use, even if manufactured correctly.
A manufacturing defect occurs when a product is produced improperly, making it more dangerous than planned.
Failure to warn refers to missing or insufficient safety information, labels, or instructions that would have prevented injury.
