Product Liability Laws

Three different kinds of defects are classified in the laws of Product Liability in Michigan.

The first type are manufacturing defects. These are defects that occur when a product was assembled or made improperly. For example, if a table has a sound design, but during assembly two key bolts were not installed, this would be a manufacturing defect.

Second, design defects are defects that are present because the design is faulty. For instance, if a coffee mug melts any time hot coffee is put in because the design called for the faulty material, this would be a design defect.
