Home » FAQs » What are some examples of defective products?

A defective product is any product that, due to a defect in its design or manufacture, or because of inaccurate or deceptive marketing, has harmed a user. Many manufacturer defects are dangerous, and cause substantial injury and death every year. The most common types of defective products that have led to mass tort litigation include

Motor vehicles, parts, and components, including airbags, braking and steering systems, seat belts, and tires
Medications and medical devices, including Zantac, Philips CPAP machines, the Bair Hugger, and others
Household appliances, such as faulty water heaters, clothes dryers, hair dryers, and more
Children’s toys that are found to have choking hazards or dangerous chemicals in their paint or other parts of their construction
