Manufacturing defects

Common defects in products can occur at any stage of manufacturing due to various reasons, such as contamination or the use of substandard processes or parts. These defects can lead to product failure and potential harm to consumers, which may result in legal action.

Design defects

Defects in a product resulting from poor execution in the design process make the company liable for compensation if it is determined that the defect could have been avoided and economically feasible alternatives existed.

Marketing defects

When manufacturers fail to communicate the risks associated with their products before purchase, it is considered a marketing defect. Manufacturers are held responsible for these defects, which could have been avoided by providing clear warnings or instructions on product packaging.
