What are the three types of product defects?

When a manufacturing company designs, creates, and markets a consumer product, all of these steps should be geared towards keeping the consumer safe. However, sometimes errors by the manufacturer can result in dangerous products being put on the market. There are three main types of product defects that can lead to harm:

Design flaws
Faulty manufacturing
Misleading labels

Any of these three forms of defective products can hurt you and those you love. Thankfully, an area of law called product liability can help you stand up to the negligent manufacturing company responsible for a dangerous product.
