Laws Concerning Product Liability in Massachusetts
There are 3 basic classes of product defects in Massachusetts.
Manufacturing defects are the first. These are defects that come from the actual production and making of the product. For instance, if essential screws, which are called for in the design, are not installed in a chair, and the chair breaks when someone sits on it as a result, this is a manufacturing defect.
The second type are design defects. These defects exist when they are ingrained in a product's design, and the product cannot be safely manufactured, even if made to specifications. For instance, if an electric saw lacks an emergency shutoff switch, this would be a design defect.
