Defective products carry an array of risks, from electrical faults causing fire in the home to moving parts coming loose and causing injury. When a device you’ve purchased fails in a way that causes injuries or financial losses, you have every right to pursue compensation from the manufacturer.
Be aware that in situations like this, you’re likely to hear from the manufacturer itself as soon as they become aware of the incident. They’ll want you to sign away your rights in exchange for the lowest dollar value they think you’ll accept. Do not sign anything from a defective product manufacturer until you consult with experienced injury attorneys to assess your situation! There may be similar cases you haven’t heard about, or patterns of conduct by the manufacturer that will show it’s a bad corporate citizen that takes needless risks with its customers’ safety.
